The Central Frederick Neighbourhood Association created a community garden to connect local residents through the growing of fruits and vegetables. Their challenge was that there was no convenient water supply available for the garden.This workshop provides a unique opportunity for participants to speak with the community garden members who are leading the project, and to learn from a landscape professional about how to harvest rainwater and install infiltration galleries.
Harvest Rain (1 pm to 2 pm): Talk to the rainwater harvesting experts who set up cisterns to collect rainwater to service the irrigation needs of the Central Frederick Community Garden. Learn how to best use cisterns like these in the context of your own home or community garden.
Soak Up Overflow (2 pm to 3 pm): Then the experts will explain the solution to prevent water ponding from the cisterns overflowing. A simple underground storage area called an infiltration gallery (aka soakaway pit) will be installed. This will allow the water to soak into the ground and solve any drainage problems.
Workshop includes:
Get involved, get inspired and get green!

What’s a Little Library?
According to the Little Free Library website, “It’s a “take a book, return a book” gathering place where neighbors share their favorite literature and stories. In its most basic form, a Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone may stop by and pick up a book (or two) and bring back another book to share.”
There are now a number of them across Waterloo Region. Learn more at Little Libraries of KW
