Why Rain Barrels?

With increasingly dry weather patterns, water conservation is a priority on the minds of many Central Texans. Collecting rain- water during wet times and storing it for use during dry periods is a water conservation technique that has been practiced for centuries. Rain barrels are an easy and inexpensive way for homeowners to begin their own small scale rainwater harvesting system.
