For the sixth year, the High Plains Underground Water Conservation District (HPWD) will host its annual rainwater harvesting workshops in April and May.

The free workshops will be held from 6:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the following locations:

▪ April 11 - Mallet Event Center & Arena, 2320 U.S. Highway 385, Levelland.
▪ April 25 - Palo Duro Room, Cole Community Center, 300 N.16th Street, Canyon.
▪ May 2 - HPWD office, 2930 Avenue Q, Lubbock.

“As heavier downpours and longer periods between rainfall events become more frequent, we want to share information with the public about larger capacity rainwater catchment systems. This workshop is a great opportunity to hear from those who have hands-on experience with rainwater harvesting," said Katherine Drury, HPWD Education and Outreach coordinator.

Drawings for 25 Ivy rainwater harvesting barrels will be held at each workshop. The barrels hold 50 gallons of harvested rainwater.

Persons should register at rsvp.hpwd.org or call the HPWD office at (806) 762-0181.
