The Rainkeeper

The Rainkeeper We specialize in designs, products, and installation for large-scale rainwater harvesting systems for commercial and residential use. For owner Michael L.

Also, we provide maintenance and service for rainwater systems as well as solar energy systems. Rainkeeper’s mission is to provide solutions to one of Earth’s greatest challenges: a rising need in availability of fresh water for a steadily growing global population. By offering a spectrum of specialized services and products, Rainkeeper has established itself as a successful and reputable name in

rainwater harvesting. Rainkeeper’s success is augmented by its superb customer service and quality client relationships. The high standards that Rainkeeper employs in the marketing, installation, and maintenance of each of their systems is what solidifies its position as one of the leaders in rainwater harvesting companies in North America and abroad. Rainkeeper, a division of Stark Environmental, provides a full suite of rainwater collection systems to both individual and corporate clients. Stark, rainwater harvesting is not just a business, but a passion. Stark founded Stark Environmental in 2004 after 20 years of owning and operating a successful land development and construction company. Stark’s strong interest in watershed protection coupled with extensive experience managing commercial and residential construction projects has given him a uniquely holistic perspective on designing and installing rainwater systems. Simplicity is a central tenet to the Rainkeeper approach. Our goal is to unite the age-old philosophy of conservation with the latest technological innovations. At Stark Environmental, we are not interested in creating systems that burden clients with a lifetime of maintenance costs. Instead, we strive to analyze every aspect of each individual project, and then tailor-create a system that will function in the most efficient, cost-effective manner. By establishing direct-buy relationships (many of them exclusive) with the highest quality product manufacturers, Stark Environmental is able to offer unmatched value to their diverse clientele which includes builders, engineers, architects, and private homeowners. We are able to offer a range of products that meet a variety of budgets and needs - from a single tank or filter, to entire commercial systems complete with specifications, technical assistance and project management. Our background in construction grants us a clear understanding of budgetary concerns, building practices, and scheduling demands, as well as the logistics of working and communicating with subcontractors. We are dedicated to following the progress of each project from the design stage to the start-up and commissioning of the system. We are committed to the long-term performance of our systems, and we routinely follow up on projects after their completion.

❄️What an Amazing Accomplishment! You did it! ❄️

With our partner organizations we now have over 400 data points showing where winter salt concentrations may be a problem.

Friday, January 31, was our 2025 Stream Snapshot event. In addition to an event in West Chester, PA, hosted by Stroud Water Research Center, WCU Sustainability, and the Borough of West Chester twenty-eight other organizations mobilized to collect and analyze their waterways.

Explore the data in our interactive map: https://stroudcenter.info/saltmap

Join us at the Stroud Center on Wednesday, February 26 beginning at 6 p.m. to learn what the study means, how to interpret the data, and what you can do to lessen the impact of road salt in our waterways.

Did you hear? Trees are the biggest health hack for city dwellers. Greening cities with trees not only helps to cool and clean the air but also has a significant impact on the health of the people who live there. The Green Heart Project in Louisville, KY has provided the strongest evidence to date of the positive relationship between trees and human health. This groundbreaking study has shown that by strategically planting the right trees in the right places, cities can foster happier, healthier communities.
In New York, we couldn’t agree more. We’re committed to ensuring the future of New York City’s urban forest for all in a just and equitable way. Achieving our goals requires good science, an inspired vision, a powerful and effective voice, a diverse community and opportunities to connect New Yorkers to their trees. And that’s exactly what we’re doing through our Forest For All NYC coalition. Learn more at
