May 23rd • 10:00 am to 5:00 pm • San Anselmo

Interested in reusing your home’s greywater? Do you desire a water-saving yet abundant landscape? Want to learn more about greywater and how to build your own system? Come to our design and installation workshop, presented in collaboration with Permaculture Marin!

During this one-day workshop we will spend the morning learning the principles and advantages of greywater use, different types of systems, the new California code, appropriate landscape design and plants for greywater, common mistakes in system designs, and suitable products to use. In the afternoon we will install a simple, code compliant “laundry to landscape” greywater system, based on designs formulated by Oasis Design and Greywater Action.

This is a hands-on class, so come prepared to dig in the dirt and actually install a system from beginning to end!

Cost: sliding scale of $40 to $70. Class limited to 15 participants. Limited work-trade available.

To register: or for more information, contact Dustin Kahn at flowMarin@gmail.com. Directions to the site will be given at registration.

Here’s a video showing the type of system we will be teaching about and installing.
