					<description><![CDATA[Since we grow off grid at our home, rain water catchment is a critical aspect of our gardening efforts. So, let&#8217;s talk about what we do. We have what we&#8217;d call &#8220;full&#8221; rain water catchment. All of our gutters are routed into individual rain barrels, basically converted 32 gallon Rubbermaid trash cans. In our early [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[&#160; Well, we just got a rain storm unlike one we&#8217;ve seen in a long time! But, this leads into a rain water capture concept that is probably important to talk about! At least where we are at, we live in what&#8217;s called a subarctic desert. It&#8217;s not a desert in the traditional sense, but [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Since we got a bit of rainfall, let&#8217;s go through our full rain water catchment systems! At our home, we&#8217;re effectively &#8220;off the water grid,&#8221; so collecting rain water is a vital aspect of operating our off grid gardens. We&#8217;ll start with our collectors. We used to use rain water diverters, but found these to [&#8230;]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[So, we don&#8217;t feature this garden very often in our chats. This one was our &#8220;OG&#8221; garden that came with our place. Today, it serves as our perennial flower garden. This is also where we do a lot of our perennial flower experimentation, seeing if things will come back in zone 3 or not.

					<description><![CDATA[We are sometimes asked to talk about our irrigation systems, rain water capture and some of the techniques we use to keep our plants well hydrated in our off-grid gardening environments. We decided to put a video series together on this topic since it&#8217;s much easier to just show you, rather than to write about [&#8230;]]]></description>
