Rain Barrels for The Houston-Area Community

9/21/2025
2:00 PM - 4:00 PM Eastern

You are invited to a rain barrel workshop. Join us on Sunday, September 21 to learn about the benefits of rain barrels, get one for your home/house of worship and learn how to install it on your property. Rain barrels not only conserve water, a precious natural resource, they also help to keep water clean and reduce flooding, thereby making Houston a more resilient city. And, these barrels have been re-purposed, avoiding plastic waste. Registration includes one rain barrel, one connecter kit and training to install them. Supplies of rain barrels are limited, so please register early. Rain barrels will be available to be picked up on Sunday, Sept. 21, from 2 – 3 p.m. in the church parking lot. Installation training will take place afterward, from 3 – 3:30 p.m., with Q & A/wrap-up from 3:30 – 4 p.m., in the church building. Galveston Bay Foundation will share a presentation discussing water conservation tools like Water My Yard, the environmental benefits of reducing freshwater usage and collecting rainwater, as well as proper
rain barrel preparation, installation instructions and tips. If you can’t stay for the training, recorded training is available. This workshop is organized by Galveston Bay Foundation in partnership with the Interfaith Environmental Network of Houston, and is sponsored by Coca-Cola Southwest Beverages.
