These unique, environmentally friendly rain barrels are sold at cost! When used to collect rainwater from rooftops, only 1/10th of an inch of rain from an average roof can fill a 50 gallon rain barrel. Our rain barrels consist of a large plastic barrel, spigot, overflow pipe, garden hose section, and an inlet with a screen. Feel free to decorate your barrel to display your own personality or creativity. Rain barrels reduce the amount of storm water that enters the sewers and sinkholes. The barrels also eliminate the need for excessive water bills because all of the water is reusable for your lawn or plants. The barrels are easy to use and will greatly benefit anyone who decides to purchase one. Barrels are sold for $60.00, which is the cost of production. The partners for the Bowling Green and Warren County Rain Barrel Program are; KY Division of Water, WC Division of Stormwater Management, City of Bowling Green, UK Cooperative Extension – Warren County, BGGreen Partnership for a Sustainable Community, BGMU, Lost River Cave, Central KY P.R.I.D.E., and the KY Waterways Alliance
