Creating a sustainable ecosystem in such a challenging environment requires innovative solutions. With the help of a grant from the NRCS, I’m setting up BDAs to capture and infiltrate water more effectively. This new structure will complement the dirt bathtubs, terraces, and check dams that we've previously established. Despite the difficulties of rocky soil and unpredictable rain, progress is being made. We aim to establish a robust underground water flow to support plant life. I'm just trying to make the most of every opportunity to learn and grow. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 💡 Useful Resources 👉 Sign up to Dustups newsletter https://dustupsranch.com/ 👉 BTC Donations: 3MbcxZzYpRjNRJJP55ZdBtt8TWfp7SS9bR 👉 Get access to Dustups 2D/3D map by joining the membership program at https://www.buymeacoffee.com/dustups/membership 👉 The Facebook group where like-minded people connect: https://www.facebook.com/groups/dustups - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 👉 In case you missed the previous episode, here’s a shortcut: Why This Grass is a Game-Changer for My Desert Ranch https://youtu.be/0p9bWku6Yww - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - #desertforest #desertplanting #greeningthedesert
