Rainwater & Cisterns

The Houston area has periods with high rainfalls and equal periods with practically none. The sensible strategy is to catch as much water as possible when it rains and then use it to water plants later during times of drought. This class discusses very low cost methods to absorb water on your property as well as more expensive methods such as rainwater cisterns. In addition to saving yourself a lot of irrigation money, you will do your part to reduce flooding and conserve water.

Jennifer Walker is a civil engineer that has studied rainwater retention for flood control professionally and is a certified permaculture designer.
