Keep DeKalb Beautiful to host Rain Barrel Workshop

Keep DeKalb Beautiful will host a rain barrel workshop on Saturday, March 24, 2 to 3:30 p.m., located at Oak Grove United Methodist Church, 1722 Oak Grove Road, Decatur. Participants will learn how to build rain barrels and leave with a completed project.

Rain barrels harvest roof runoff, which can be used to irrigate landscape plants or gardens. Just 1 inch of rain on a 1,000-square-foot roof provides 623 gallons of water.

The rain barrel workshop is $25 per household and limited seating remains. All proceeds will benefit Friends of Frazier-Rowe Park. To register, call Keep DeKalb Beautiful at 404-298-4080.
