Solana Center for Environmental Innovation and the County of San Diego have teamed up to offer discounted rain barrels to encourage rainwater harvesting. Don’t miss this opportunity to pay $55 per rain barrel (after rebate) on up to 2 rain barrels per household. By using rain barrels, San Diegans will conserve water, reduce runoff pollution and save money on their water bill when reusing rainwater for their gardens and landscapes.
The Rainwater − Catch it San Diego program offers 50 gallon “Ivy” discounted rain barrels for purchase at http://rainbarrelprogram.org/SD by credit card. The normal retail price is $129 but through this program they are only $90. Homeowners may also be eligible for a rebate of $35 each on residential rain barrels for up to 2 rain barrels per household, which could bring the cost down to $55 per rain barrel. More details on rebates and eligibility requirements are available at http://socalwatersmart.com/.
Deadline to pre-order:
April 8, 2018 at 11 p.m. for pick-up in Fallbrook

Join ILACSD and the County of San Diego for a litter cleanup in San Luis Rey on August 18 from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM! Volunteers will meet at the corner of Old River Road and Little Gopher Canyon Road, Bonsall, CA 92084. We will collect trash along the San Luis Rey Riverbed to divert waste from the watershed and beautify the community for summer hikers! This is a great opportunity for students and families to learn ways to protect our local environment!
We will have cleanup supplies, snacks, and water. We also provide community service hours and Letters of Appreciation for volunteers. We encourage volunteers to bring their own reusable items such as water bottles, work gloves, and buckets to promote zero waste practices and help us in our mission to have a zero waste, litter-free and environmentally engaged San Diego region!
All volunteers are required to fill out a waiver form to participate and anyone under the age of 18 needs a waiver signed by their parent or guardian.
See you there!
