Workshops will be offered on:

Workshops are free and open to the public and required if you'd like to purchase a barrel. Workshops cover safety and maintenance and also offer watershed-wise landscaping ideas that complement the barrels.

Barrels cost $90 each. For more info, visit the website or call Jennifer Willoughby at 301.984.1908 x 109.
