Water Harvesting Open House
Saturday, Dec. 5, 2009 from 10 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Come see water harvesting in action! Guided by Water Harvesting
Professional and Permaculturist, Brook Sarson, you'll see how a 1320
gallon rainwater tank combined with laundry greywater and bath
greywater work together to grow a garden of edibles using only 1/4
of the water that most San Diegans use each day.
As you tour this urban farm setting, you'll see natural building
techniques including a cob chicken coop, decorative benches as well
as an earth pizza oven. Brook will be on-hand to talk to you about
solutions for your space and how you can make a difference during
San Diego's water crisis and beyond.
Please feel free to arrive at any time during the open house to
learn about simple greywater systems, do-it-yourself options,
rainwater-harvesting systems, resources, or schedule an appointment
with Brook to assess greywater opportunities at your site. Suggested
donation of $5 will go toward supporting water activism in San
Diego. Please RSVP to Brook at [email protected] or call 619.964.4838
and I will give you the address.
Make Your Own Rain Barrel Workshop
Saturday, Dec. 5, 2009. 2:30- 4:30pm
Are you ready for the rain? If you’ve been looking for a cost
effective way of saving rainwater, we are offering a solution. Come
and make your own rain barrel to take home! Britt Cool, from
American Recyclers and Brook Sarson, of H2OME will host the class.
We will provide clean, recycled 55 gallon drums along with a kit of
parts to tap it for a hose fitting on the bottom and an overflow on
the top. You will be able to drill your holes and assemble your
barrel onsite.
We will talk about filtration, mosquitoes, how to figure out your
water resources, uses for your rainwater, as well as other rainwater
harvesting techniques.
After the class, you can purchase additional barrels and kits, if
you choose.
The cost of the class is $60. You can upgrade your tank choice for
$5. We have a couple of scholarships available. Additional Barrels
are $32. We accept cash or checks.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Kind Regards,
Brook Sarson
