Other times he will catch a moment with a farming friend or podcast guest to share educational farming tidbits.
This quick podcast episode is designed to be brief and not take up your day. So… listen in and enjoy this Garden snack…
In This Brief Bite:
Farmer Greg’s sustainable, regenerative water harvesting system has him singing in the rain, even in the desert. Greg explains where the water comes from and where it goes, and he gives details about how he collects and distributes it. He also gives a formula for calculating the amount of water available for harvesting on your own site, along with other helpful tips and resources for getting started safely and legally.
