Hello, my name is Steve Gibson. I'm from and live in central Indiana. I currently collect rain water outside in a pond, in earth works and in stock tanks, but I'm also interested in building a cistern. Anyone have resources for information? I didn't see anything on this forum so I thought I'd ask.
Thank you, Steve.

Hi Steve and Welcome to Permies. I saw your post yesterday and I thought someone might have some info by now. You might try posting the question in the green building forum. I'm sorry I know nothing about cisterns. My great grandparents always had one but that was somewhere around 1965 and the only thing I knew about it was that I was supposed to stay away from it so that I wouldn't fall in .
