Build a Rain Barrel Workshop at Frelinghuysen Arboretum

Take an active role in recycling rainwater by installing a rain barrel at your home!

A rain barrel is placed under a gutter's downspout next to a house to collect rain water from the roof. Harvesting rain water has many benefits including saving water, saving money on your water bill, and preventing basement flooding.  

Make your own 55-gallon rain barrel in this workshop and help save the planet. We provide the barrels, tools and all supplies needed, you provide the transportation home!
