  • Passive Water Harvesting

    Passive Water Harvesting
    Jul 16 2024
    What is passive water harvesting? Martha outlines two methods of passively harvesting water in her garden. By slowing the water, allowing it to spread out, and sink down, she harnesses what would otherwise be urban runoff, and adds tons of free water to her garden in the process.

Love the information!

I wasn’t expecting so much information with how’s and why’s and ethics discussions. It was refreshing!
His voice is also nice to listen to. It’s not exactly soothing, but it’s crisp and not twangy.
Finally, I appreciate the directions to videos and other formats of information.

Good with one exception

There were good recommendations for natives but when when trifoliate orange was mentioned I was disappointed. This plant is considered an invasive species.
