Turn water scarcity into water abundance!

This course teaches you how to conceptualize, design, and implement sustainable water-harvesting systems for your home, landscape, and community.

Rainwater is an amazing free resource. It's more beneficial to plants than municipally supplied water and it can help:

    reduce storm-water runoff

    recharge aquifers

    stop groundwater depletion

Harvesting rainwater can also help you become more self-reliant with water and lower your carbon footprint.

The goal of this water catchment course is for you to create an integrated, multi-functional water harvesting plan specific to your site and needs.

    Define key rainwater harvesting concepts, terms, and principles

    Assess a site for rainwater harvesting potential and water uses

    Make strategic decisions about what features and systems to use for a site

    Design a conceptual integrated rainwater harvesting plan for a site

    Refine a conceptual rainwater harvesting plan with relevant systems details
