What’s a rain barrel? For all those urbanites who only knew about rain barrels from children’s songs, this event presented by the City of Santa Monica’s Office of Sustainability & the Environment, features products (rain barrels and cisterns) that help to harvest rain water, a sustainable solution indeed in this dry climate. Local experts will be available for consultation.
