With drought conditions lingering, it’s the perfect time to make every drop count! Discover how rainwater collection and creek-friendly gardening can support our local ecosystem, strengthen our community, and even save you money. 
 
Join Katie with Austin Watershed Protection and Christopher from Austin Water for an informative and inspiring workshop on rainwater cisterns, waterwise landscaping, and native & adapted plants. You’ll learn how to choose, maintain, and make the most of a cistern, and more about beautiful, resilient native & adapted plants that thrive in Central Texas. 

This is a free event.
