Water - Saving Money Tips

[sweatervestspence]

I love my rain barrels that capture our roof water and let us use it in the garden. Also have built an outside sink that runs off the house and drains into the yard. I take a lot of messier and larger pots and pans out there to scrub and let the run-off slide into my garden and yard. You gotta keep the detergent to a minimum, and I usually soak several hours before running. I tend to use less water in washing this way and am watering the lawn, so the grey water gets used twice.

This is very important for everyone to save water. There are certain area of countries where water supply is very low. Many people are not even getting a drinking water after paying for it, so everyone should the aware that water is very important for living so I would like to say save water save life.

Hopefully this year we will rig up a pump to run water from the middle pond to my garden beds. Will save fresh water and since pond water is better for the plants and has natural nutrients, it will be healthier for the plants as well-a natural fertilizer.

Running the pump for 5 minutes will completly fill 3 barrels which would be a week worth of watering, so def not expensive at all.

I always wanted a place with a pond. Right now, all that I have is a creek. But, it's polluted with mine water. It kills everything that it touches.
