The City of Orlando partners with Coca-Cola Beverages Florida (Coke Florida) to teach residents:
- How rain harvesting is an inexpensive means of capturing and storing water
- How it can help to reduce pollution from stormwater runoff
- How it can help you save money on utility bills in the process
Attending the workshop is free and happens usually two times per year. Residents receive a free rain barrel as a wonderful addition to lawns and gardens for ornamental, landscaping plants, or pollinator gardens.
These barrels are recycled Coca-Cola syrup barrels that are washed and ready to be re-used to gather rain for resident-use. More than 350 rain barrels have been given to residents so far!
Thank you to Coke Florida for coming alongside us to help our residents with harvesting rain and conserving water!
