💧 Your plants have been paying full price for water this whole time.

Turns out, rain is free.

Many Central Iowa communities offer rebates on rain barrels, making it easier (and cheaper) to collect rainwater for your garden and landscaping.

Your flowers stay happy. Your water bill gets a break. Everyone wins.

Check with your local city or utility to see if a rebate is available in your area. 🌧️🌼

A lot can change in just a few months.

What started as open lots and plans on paper is now turning into real homes, real progress, and a community that people can actually begin to picture themselves in. Seeing construction happening throughout Saddle Ridge makes the excitement for HomeShowExpo 2026 feel a little more real every day. 🏡

Appreciate RE/MAX Precision Norwalk
for capturing and sharing some of the activity happening out there. It’s fun watching this next chapter of Saddle Ridge unfold.
