Part 3/10:
A significant focus of our fourth year was to enhance our water capture and storage capabilities. We undertook the ambitious task of building over 600 feet of berm and swale which will reliably capture approximately 20,000 gallons of water per inch of rain, effectively restoring the desert ecosystem that has been neglected for years. By relying on rainwater and the construction of a 6,500-gallon earthbag cistern, we aim to ensure substantial water security.
