If you have not already noticed our involvement in the Great Lakes program hosted by the Sierra Club (America’s oldest grassroots organization). We have partnered again for a kick-off spring event on the Detroit Riverfront. This is a three-way collaboration between the Sierra Club, The Detroit RiverFront Conservancy and Maxi Container, Inc. This event is free to the public to watch learn and listen as we build barrels and show how to attach them to a downspout on your home. You can also pickup a barrel for $60 or per-register to receive the discount and build your barrel with us! (visit: http://mirainbarrel.com/signup and click on “Rain Barrels on the Riverfront” to sign up now!) This event is going to be a fun Saturday morning (April, 14th) … bring the whole family!
For more info please call 313-444-3705 or visit http://mirainbarrel.com

Hey There Maxicontainer,
On a similar note,, Is it potential to operate an beneficial drip irrigation line from a rain barrel? Would there be capability issues with stress?
Catch you again soon!
Yes!! Just hook up the overflow to a old hose. Cut slots or poke holes and create a low pressure soaker hose 🙂
Let me know if you have questions!
