Three winners will be chosen at random from the entries submitted for a custom rain barrel made from used food transport containers, Connecticut Water officials said. The barrels had been used for shipping pickles and are being repurposed into rain barrels by a Connecticut Water employee who volunteered as a way to promote water conservation.
