Recently the Venango Conservation District hosted a Rain Barrel Workshop.  Participants learned about the benefits of using a rain barrel to manage stormwater in the backyard.  Along with the presentation, the district recommends that homeowners utilize rain gardens near their rain barrel.  This practice is a great place to empty your rain barrel after every storm event.  You can find our rain barrel powerpoint presentation below as well as a great "how to" publication on rain gardens created for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.  You can find links to these publications below:
