Aaah plants!  Outside of a little patch of soil and a spot of sunlight all these guys really need is a bit of water every now and again...or everyday as the case may be.  With a bit of luck and a few rain dances we can count on Mother Nature to provide, but just one hot July day without water can mean the demise of an entire crop.

Sure we could rely on the spigot but with your tax-deductible donation of a rain barrel we can be one step closer to aquatic self-sustainability.

Roots and Rays hosts regular workshops in the garden with neighborhood schools and programs.  This year we are looking forward to a number of creative projects with the kids including painting the generously donated rain barrels.

884 million people worldwide lack access to safe water supplies; approximately one in eight people.  To find out you can help others in need, please visit www.water.org
