EPOCH rain barrels are repurposed or “upcycled” high-quality food-grade drums that were destined for a landfill. The drums are re-purposed into rain barrels using socially and environmentally conscious labor and manufacturing processes. They include a screened lid, brass and stainless fittings, high-density upcycled plastic, locking cap, and overflow/linking ports. Samples are available for viewing here at the nursery.
