- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 08:00 am – Sat, 14 Nov, 2026 at 11:00 am (-07:00)
- **Event Description**: Learn how to harvest rainwater to keep your home cooler, reduce utility bills, and promote biodiversity in your own backyard! 

In the Australian Outback everyone does it; In the Sonoran Desert the rain in vain falls mainly down the drain. Did you know that by harvesting water in a well-mulched basin, you can keep moisture in the soil for up to two months?! That moisture can produce lush bird and lizard habitat, and keep your home cooler, reducing utility bills. On this tour you will learn how to redirect rainwater from problem areas and how to calculate the amount of water can be collected off of your roof. We will also cover greywater, storage, related ordinances and incentives, shading, windows, slopes and diversion pipes. Participants will see many strategies that can be applied to their own home and neighborhood.

Instructor: Sonya Norman

Where to Meet: Small park at 2525 N. Treat Ave.

What to Expect:  We will study the contouring features of a park and street, and the drains, gutters, and downspouts of several homes. The tour will be completely outdoors. Creating wildlife habitat, shade for hot west-facing walls or for pedestrians, keeping foundations dry are all part of the multiple benefits that come with careful planning and implementation. We will walk about 1 mile round trip, slowly along the street.
