Order your barrel online and then pick up your barrel and installation materials in Portsmouth on Saturday, August 24th. Barrels are $55 each and include the barrel and installation kit for you to take home and convert this container into any ally for a cleaner Narragansett Bay.
For Rain Barrel Pick Up:
Where - 9 Berkeley Ave, Middletown, RI 02842
When - Saturday, April 26th, 2025 between 10:00 AM-12:30 PM
Please pay attention to your selected pick-up time.

Take home a rain barrel which will collect and store stormwater for your garden. You will receive an unpainted barrel and installation kit that will connect to your downspout. Rain barrel prepping instructions are provided through a video and FAQ available on our website. Go to https://www.easternriconservation.org/residential-rain-barrels. Please wear clothing that you do not mind getting dirty, as you will be sanding down your barrel before taking it with you. Containers are generously provided by the Rhode Island Brewers Guild.
The make-up Rain-Date for this workshop is Sunday, April 27th. You will be notified via the email that you sign up with whether the workshop is postponed due to the weather!
