WE HAVE RAIN BARRELS FOR SALE! 

HCMG builds and sells inexpensive rain barrels to the community. Each rain barrel is made of food grade plastic and is ready to install under a downspout, or if rain gutters are not an option, a rain chain can be attached to the roof and water will flow down into the rain barrel.

Beginining June 1, 2023 the cost of the rain barrel is $70. A rebate of 50% per rain barrel, up to a maximum of $500, is available to Kerr County residents from the Upper Guadalupe River Authority (UGRA) .

This plastic rain barrel was clad in wood to resemble an old-fashioned cistern and complement the Craftsman style home.
