At our house in Wauwatosa we two sets of rain barrels / crates to capture water for outdoor use. At our property in rural Virginia we have a slightly fancier system which we use for potable water once it’s filtered. We are building a cottage there which will have an even fancier version that uses rain water for all purposes, and is plumbed into the cottage. Happy to show you either or both, but if you want to see the Virginia system you’ll have to wait until I’m out there!
