👍 Good for you, gardenhappy. Your rain barrel is beautiful and your garden will be happy as Kristi said. Hope your rain barrel collection grows exponentially.
I have found a kindred spirit.
It pains me to see rain water go down the drain. I became even more careful with water usage after traveling in India and Africa where people have to go through so much trouble gaining access to any water.
I began with 2 rain barrels made from pickled barrels that cracked the first winter. After several trials and errors, currently I have 33 in my garden and several planters & containers made of cracked/leaky barrels.
I also collect grey water from kitchen sink and washing machine.
