It's on! One Straw Society is working with Persephone Brewing to put a bandaid on this water crisis that risks the loss of our food in farms & gardens up and down the Coast.
With support from Sunshine Coast Credit Union, we’re building a partnership of land owners that have good wells, trucks to transport water, and breweries & cideries to lend 1000L water totes for storage. It’s pretty inspiring to see how a community can come together!
We’ll fill totes (or a tanker truck) from high producing wells near you, bring that water to your garden or field, and fill your onsite storage - cisterns, totes, barrels, or garbage cans. Don’t have water storage? We’ll drop off a tote for a few days or weeks (free, thanks to our brewery & cidery friends), or better yet, you can buy a tote or barrel at cost. You’ll have rainwater storage forever more. 💦🌱💦 Sound investment it seems these days.
Please help us find water, people and trucks to get all that groundwater to our carrots & peas!
>>> Got a well that could fill a tote (or 10)?
>>> Got a truck that could do a delivery to a neighbour?
>>> Got time to help coordinate, or do water deliveries for a few hours?
>>> Need water for your farm or garden?
