Programs and Activities

Interested in conserving water, decreasing stormwater runoff, and helping the health of our watersheds? Collecting rainwater from your roof to use on your garden or lawn helps the environment and saves you money on your water bill! In this workshop, you’ll get hands on experience building a rain barrel and learn how to install and maintain it.

Water barrels can be purchased at the workshop for $50.00 each, payable the day of the class (cash/check). Register by 7/15. Please contact staff at least two days prior to the program if interested in purchasing a rain barrel at natureoutdoors@lynchburgva.gov or 434-455-5828. Presented by Lynchburg Water Resources.
