Free Webinar: Rain, Rain, Come Our Way!

Learn About Rain Catchment Solutions   

Saturday, Oct. 3 @ 10am

Are you interested in conserving water, saving money, and fighting pollution?

Join the City of Palo Alto as we discuss the benefits, design and maintenance of capturing rain water on your property with rain barrels, cisterns, and rain gardens. We will also discuss the money-saving rebates the City of Palo Alto offers residents and businesses in partnership with Valley Water.

Attendees are also eligible to participate in our drawing for a free rain barrel, which will be shipped directly to the winner’s home!

Stormwater Capture Projects Improve Your Property

Installing rain barrels, cisterns, and rain gardens diverts rain away from impermeable surfaces like concrete and redirects it toward permeable surfaces where water can be absorbed into soil or stored for future irrigation needs. These property improvements:

• reduce ponding water in winter and related flood risks
• may decrease utility bills by capturing water for future irrigation needs
• turn hard surfaces that reflect heat, into cooler beautiful landscapes that benefit pollinators
• reduce pollution that would otherwise travel to Palo Alto creeks and San Francisco Bay
