BPA’s leaching into rain barrel water?
2009 June 21
I’m not sure who could help me with this question but I am considering installing a rain barrel to collect water for my vegetable garden. I am finding no information, however, on whether the large plastic drums have BPA’s in them or not. If they do, is it harmful to water vegetables with this water? Or does the BPA break down in the soil somehow?
