Modern Rain Collector

I’m a huge fan of rain barrels overall. They’re the perfect sustainable garden accessory and allow you to both conserve water and water your garden at a fraction of traditional costs. However, most are bulky and not known for their attractiveness. One rain barrel, the RC-1 Rain Collector by HERO stands out as not only an eco-friendly rain collector, but a stunning piece of garden art.

This beautiful alternative to conventional rain barrels holds 45 gallons of water, which is plenty of water to tend your garden, wash your car, gutters, or your dog, without tapping into the city’s water supply. It includes a pretty brass spigot and a phthalate free collapsible bladder. Panels and legs are comprised of UV resistant polyester powder coated cold rolled steel and the cistern is lifted 17in. off the ground so that your watering can easily fits under the spigot. Included is an overflow valve which you can use to connect to a diverter on your. The whole deal ships flat packed to save on resources.

So awesome! Available at Modern Karibou.
