Zesty Garden- August 15

water collection

Harvesting rainwater on your own property is easy to do. Utah Water Watch Coordinator, Brian Green, and Licensed Landscape Architect Kevin Jensen of Three Men and a Shovel, are in studio with practical ideas on how to do it. He talks regulations, how to store rainwater, and how to (and when to) register to collect rainwater in your own yard.

Before 2010 you were breaking the law to collect rainwater- even the water coming off your own roof or from your property. Why? Water rights.
