Slow, spread and sink rainwater with a swale, to create moisture in the soil for plants, and to feed water into the aquifer.

Thank you for the very important consideration in planning my new garden.

Beautiful and great ideas. It would be nice if city governments and water districts thought like this and did this with our storm runoff streams. The swale in the video is beautiful but not easily attainable to the average homeowner as each one of those boulders would cost you anywhere from $200 to $1000 a piece.

Thank you, I agree. Do you have any sources where I can learn to make swales for my slopes?
