Watering my veggie and fruit garden is important to sustaining life.
Our neighbor down the street has a very elaborate timer, rain catch barrel system I’ve every seen. There are rain barrels under ever down spout. He more or less hydroponics his veggies, and his front yard. His back yard is all veggies.
Of course this is Tennessee where we actually get rain.
wait until your neighbor gets slapped with a federal and UN tax for catching “the kings water”
