The excavator and the forest

Posted in Course, General, PRI, earthworks, geoff lawton, swale, water by sink on the February 27th, 2008

Last training camp we were fortunate in having an excavator in operation on the farm. Earthworks were a go and water harvesting / tree growing systems were carved out harmonically into the landscape. Three new swale systems and a small dam were introduced, extending the productive edges on the farm.
