I don't have any solid answers for you. But I did something similar. However, I planted around a mature tree. My goal was mostly to retain the irrigation water, because before, it was mostly watering rocks and weeds. Then I had a second purpose, i…

I have newly planted 6 fruit trees and two grape plants and while I’m waiting for them to grow and hopefully produce, I’m thinking about planting ornamentals around their bases, but I want to check out a few things with you all. 1) I’ve noticed on a…

Chris, I agree on the Metal vs Asphalt delema...with my first flush, I worry a little less about my tank water on veggies than the chemical process that gives us Tap water. Plus, birds poop in my garden anyway I'm sure and a heck of a lot of it ends…

I was wondering about the wood shingle issue. We have shake shingles. Why can't it be used on vegetables and is the run off into the vegetable garden a concern with all of the rain we are having?
January 21
