Harvest Rainwater for Your Garden

Keep your garden plants and lawn green nature's way – with a healthy harvest of rainwater! The Farm at Green Village has the equipment, tools and expert advice you need to harvest rainwater for organic gardening needs for gardeners in Morristown, Dover, and all over northern New Jersey. We have rain barrels from Rain Wizard, in a selection of capacities and colors, so you can match your water needs and your garden décor, with flat back options for flush positioning beside house or garage. These are tough, long lasting barrels that are easy to install and require virtually no maintenance.

See the variety of connectors, adaptors and other garden supplies that divert rainwater for storage from gutters and drains, and systems that can filter impurities from rooftop collection – the ground works fine as a water filter, too! While you’re here, talk to our staff about the right amount of water for your plants – by not overwatering, you force plant roots to grow deeper, making for stronger plants.

Rainwater is the kind of water plants love. It's unchlorinated, and without other chemicals municipalities often add to make water safe to drink. It's like liquid organic fertilizer! And rainwater is a more favorable temperature for plant growth than cold well water. Cold, chlorinated tap water can actually shock garden plant root systems and stunt growth. And when watering restrictions are declared in drought conditions, you will be able to use your independent supply of collected water to keep your garden and yard beautiful. You can use this water for washing cars and other outdoor cleaning jobs, too, reducing water bills and helping conserve water. For Morristown, East Hanover, Dover and throughout northern New Jersey, the Farm at Green Village can get you gardening the organic way.
