Finished the contour garden beds. Each bed is downhill from each other. It’s pretty neat how they work. I have an IBC tote collecting gutter water. I can then flood the top bed, once it overflows, it fills up the next bed downhill and so on until all 4 beds are full. Once the last fills up, any remaining water is sent to the lower swale to flow towards the orchard. There’s something about manipulating the flow of water that feels enriching.

Swales on contour for the win 🙌🏼

I’ll be doing the same in my new land soon
