Spring is here and it's time to plant! And those new sprouts need watering! Here is a fantastic way to conserve and water your garden without losing precious time! The RainSponge is a solar powered rain barrel that pumps the water just as quickly as you expect from your household faucet! An optional timer and weep system can be included for automatic watering!
Rainwater is better for plants, too! No fluoride or chlorine!
The RainSponge is handmade and can be customized in many ways. We can have a local artist paint or sculpt the unit or perhaps a vintage Whiskey barrel can be used for the container?!
Base unit starts at $250, ask for a quote on custom RainSponge barrels!
