We discussed options for installation of the 4 new rain barrels.
We decided to:
- keep the 2 barrels we already have where they are
- add a screen to the current 2 barrels
- get flat limestone or patio stones to properly level the current 2 barrels
- put the 4 new barrels on the south side of the shed. They will act as a heat battery for our proposed seed starter. Seed starter will have a plexiglass roof a small frame and roll down plastic sides (to be discussed and budgeted in more detail later).
- connect all rain barrels by disconnect-able tubes connected to the tap at the bottom of each barrel. This creates one big reservoir that can be pumped by hand pump from both end barrels.
- add shelves to the south side of the shed for the purpose of starting seeds. (Tim to submit a plan for this in October).
What we need to do this fall
- Move out current seed starter before October 16th
- Ask people to donate old patio stones or large flat limestone rocks
- level the ground behind the shed
