DUHC Rainwater Catchment System
'IntroductionAfter meeting with Kaitlan and David of Democracy Unlimited of Humboldt County we were given the go ahead to design a rainwater catchment system for their home/business. DUHC decided on a non-potable system for watering the vegetable garden, fruit trees, berries, and animals.
