Started the Swales build yesterday.

Started the Swales build yesterday.

So after completing the composting toilet build, I’ve been running out of time with the borrowed excavator so straight into swales it is.

Forgot to take a a starting photo, but this hill is where the orchard will be and at the bottom will be vege Gardens.

First photo is all the small trees cut and moved to the side, see pile of small trees in photo 5. These will be placed into the Swale when finished to break down over time.

Once I have dug all 2-3 swales (not sure if I’ll do 3 yet) I’ll then get into shaping the mound better getting nice smooth slopes and seeding With nitrogen fixing legumes.
