Henry County Stormwater will host Rain Barrel Make-and-Take Workshops on October 14 and October 28, from 6 until 7 p.m. each night. Rainwater harvesting is a type of sustainable stormwater management. Manage stormwater at its source, and use it for car washing, other outdoor chores, and for watering gardens, lawns, flowers, and other landscaping. The cost of these workshops is $10, and participation is limited to the first ten people (5 per workshop) who sign up.

Registrants must reside within Henry County and must not have previously participated in a past Henry County workshop. The workshops limit one barrel per household and one barrel per registrant.

The workshops will be held at the Stormwater Management Office at 347 Phillips Drive in McDonough.
