We understand that to water our edible crops, the water must be of a quality suitable for this purpose – it will go into our body, so it must have a degree of cleanliness.
At some point we would like to use much larger containers, or even cistern tanks, to collect clean rainwater to help sustain our edibles during episodes of drought conditions.
Gravity Irrigation
The entire property here is lined by hillside. We intend to use that to our benefit. After installing a water delivery system, it will allow the physics of gravity to deliver water effortlessly through these water lines to designated plants. Once we have rain water catchment in place towards the top of the hillside, watering will be simple, and a gift of Nature.
