Greetings, I'm designing a community garden for the lakehead Coalition Food
Bank. We
have the use of an abandoned school for food storage and can use the land for
the
garden. The water in the building is not turned on and the owner will not do
so. The
building has no eavestroughs or downspouts and is quite high. The roof has a
major
hole in it and needs work, most likely just patching for now. I need someway
to
collect and store water on site. Ideas?
