…Oh the joys of home ownership! Autumn cleanup is underway for many Lake County residents. During this busy time of year we’d like to take a moment to remind you to bring in your Free Garden Rain Barrels as recommended by the manufacturer. Dry barrels should be stored in the shed or garage until next season. If the barrel is left outside with freezing water inside, it may crack.

Perhaps, you’ve been thinking about adding another barrel to enhance your collection volume for next year – good news! We’ve got a few left... We’ve decided to drop the already-low sale price another $5.00, just bring in your sales receipt from the 2015 sale (at the Lake County Forest Preaserve Plant Sale event or from SWALCO’s office) and we’ll make the adjustment.

(Psstt…Rain Barrels could also make a unique holiday present for the hard-to-buy-for friend or family member.)

Please reserve your next barrel today at info@swalco.org - Title the message with "We want a Rain Barrel!"
