Eco-friendly Initiatives in Langley

Langley Resuses (www.langleyreuses.com) is a great website for people in the Langley area that want to give their old stuff a second chance. If you’re in need of various items then check out that website too.

The Township of Langley has a toilet rebate program. They also sell rain barrels for $35. Collecting water in rain barrels is great way to reduce the summer demand on your water system. Your lawn and plants can still get their water too.

Another green initiative is the residential water saver kits that are for sale from the Township of Langley. The indoor kit costs $10 and the outdoor kit is $20.

For more information about the Water Wise Public Outreach and Education Program visit the TOL website.

There is also a great page with a lot of useful information about Green Infrastructure Services in Langley.
