A couple months back, member Rebecca Coleman applied to the City of Vancouver’s Greenest Cities Initiative for a grant. Her grant application for the purchase of four rain barrels for our rooftop gardens was accepted!

There are now two rain barrels on the roof of the A building and two rain barrels on the roof of B building. They are full of water and ready to go.

These rain barrels will make watering our gardens a lot easier this summer, as there will always be a source of water available and ready to go on the roof. No more lugging bottles of water up flights of stairs!
