Saturday, September 9 | 9am-12pm | Borough Hall Greenmarket (East side of Cadman Plaza West near Montague Street)

Join Council Member Lincoln Restler’s Office for a free DEP rain barrel and NYC Compost giveaway. Rain barrels help conserve water for gardening and cleaning, reduce harmful runoff, and help you save on your water bill! DEP Rain barrels come with an installation kit and instructions on how to connect them to your property’s gutter or downspout. And, don’t forget summer is also a great time to add a little compost to your garden or give your local street trees a bit of nourishment. Residents can take home up to two 40-lb bags of compost made from New York City food scraps and yard waste. Please be prepared to transport your rain barrel and/or compost without assistance. Supplies are limited. Reserve your barrel or compost here now: bit.ly/d33rainbarrelsandmore
