Growing Dreams: Ana and Julio Lopez | Central Texas Gardener

Before their house was even built, Ana and Julio Lopez mapped their new dream garden in Leander. They planned for roses, fruit trees, culinary herbs, and flowers and food for wildlife, along with shady patios to enjoy it all. To create destinations and intrigue, they cultivated creativity with pruned tree limbs and scrap lumber for trellises, arbors, and art work.

How about featuring some serious rainwater-harvesting techniques? You are having problems with drought and wildfire and seem to have very little in your video catalog to help those who are farming and ranching. You should show large scale rainwater harvesting, food forests featuring dryland food crops, the benefits of trees on agricultural and ranch soils, etc.
You're failing the people of Texas when you feature lightweight stories for useful ones. You should be featuring Brad Lancaster-style curb cuts in cities and roadway rollouts on rural dirt roads. Texas needs more water resilience and it is doable when you actively work at it.
Most farmers and ranchers are terribly ignorant of better practices because you fail to tell them!!!

Nice looking garden. I wonder what type of septic she has though. Even the HOAs here in the birthplace of the Texas flag are full of backyards with failed septics that spray the yard during every rainstorm from a lack of drainage. The OSSF education & enforcement are basically nonexistent.

Julio is a very busy man and talented also.

[@vln4443]
