Greywater Primer

In this course we will present options for disengaging from the water grid including rainwater, graywater reuse and composting toilets. We will learn about the most common, low-tech, low-cost, effective, residential greywater systems, visit several working systems and learn how they were built. We will check out materials and tools needed to build a system and learn some plumbing basics. Then we'll break into groups and help you plan a system for your own home. Participants will be emailed a greywater planning sheet that you'll fill out and bring to the workshop to help do this.
