Rain barrels + Raised beds = Rain beds

We are excited to unveil our engineer Derek Hann’s latest invention: the Rain Bed. This system is comprised of rain barrels connected to a raised bed, and is the lowest-cost, highest-benefit way we have devised to help treat stormwater runoff from our roofs. Build your own with materials sold at cost by the district.
