Urban Farm Product: Rain Catchment System
For our second semester, we started researching about urban farming. Our goal was to make a urban farming system that our customer would want installed at their house. Some products include chicken coops, planter boxes, vertical planters, rain catchment systems, & many more. Along with building our our products, we had to make pages about the build process and design process we went through.

A rain harvest system is a system that allows you to collect, store, and use rainwater from storms. The goal is to minimize the use of imported water for outdoor use, saving money and promoting sustainability. The system will include platforms/stands to elevate the storage containers and create water pressure, Strong and preserved wood, to ensure longevity and durability, and a system that will have all the collected water be able to be used through one outlet.
