ADVOCACY IN ACTION
Water Cycle Restoration
Restoring the small water cycle through decentralized water retention & infiltration is one of the most important ways we can regenerate our land, reduce the risk of fire, and build climate resilience for future generations. Join us to practice strategies that help slow, spread, and sink water into our landscapes.
ONLINE INTRO LESSON
Intro to Ecohydrology
SAT. 8/29 | 10 AM - 11:30 AM
Join us for a free online introductory lesson to learn what is the small water-cycle? What is water-cycle restoration and why is it important? How does the health of our ecosystems and regenerative land stewardship, e.g. (agro-)forestry, grazing, and soil, relate to water-cycle restoration and our climate and fire resilience?
UPCOMING IN-PERSON WORKSHOPS
Rock Check Dams
One of the nature-based infrastructures intended to reverse gully erosion, slow stormwater flow, reduce flooding, reconnect gully to floodplain, increase landscape hydration, and groundwater recharge, shown to revive wetlands & reverse desertification.
Spillway & Rock Armoring
Rock armoring of inlets, spillways, (and potentially more rock check dam work to finish). Swale, Basin/pond, & spillway design considerations.
Gully Stuffing, Log & Rock Check Dams
Using a variety of nature-based strategies to tend our woodland and watershed above our farm, in order to increase landscape hydration, reviving old (at least) ephemeral wetlands & springs, reducing erosion & flooding, and increasing our fire resilience.
Earthworks: Contour Swales & Spillways
We'll use a laser level and hand tools to re-grade a contour swale trough to be 1% off-contour, potentially more spillway/rock armoring.

September- November
Come be part of various planting workshops this year, and a crucial part of converting an old conventional dehydrating monocrop orchard into various diverse, multi-purpose, hydrating agroforestry systems, silvopastures, and interconnected wetlands.
