FERGUS – Centre Wellington District High School is now accepting pre-sale orders for a Truckload Rain Barrel Sale scheduled for May 8.
Barrels will be sold at Centre Wellington District High School from 3:30 to 5:30pm.
Rain barrels are being sold for $55 each and funds raised will support CWDHS’ environmental program.
Rain barrels capture and store rainwater collected from roofs through downspouts. They provide chlorine-free and fluoride-free water which is ideal for flowers, vegetables, lawns, shrubs and trees.
Collected water has a number of other uses including washing cars, cleaning floors, laundry and more.
These many uses can provide cost savings and conservation opportunities for every homeowner, especially those who pay to have water trucked in, use a well or have a water meter installed.
Purchasers have a choice of colours and each rain barrel available through Centre Wellington District High School comes equipped with all the parts you need to set up your barrel.
These environmentally friendly products were once used to transport fruits and vegetables and have been refurbished and re-purposed to offer years of reliable service as rain barrels.
Pre-sale orders are being accepted now at www.rainbarrel.ca/centre wellington.
Direct further inquiries to Mary Johnston 519-843-2500 X 540, Environmental Club teacher.
