Rain at last!

Wow, its been so long since it rained that the actual reality of wetness is rather a surprise. Time to unearth the umbrella and wellies.  Also, if you live in San Francisco, it's a great time to consider rainwater harvesting, because the city has a great offer right now.


Rainwater Harvesting
 
While supplies last, San Francisco residents, businesses and schools can get discounts of 30-60% off 60-gallon rain barrels and up to $640 off cisterns through the cities Discounted Rain Barrel and Cistern Program.

In Marin, Marin Municipal Water District is offering classes, and has some helpful links on their webpage re: Rainwater Harvesting. Since we can't know how much rain we will get from this storm, conservation is surely a wise thing. 


I've been watering my pots in January, which just feels wrong. So glad it is raining. Careful out there on the slippery roads folks!
