Hi! I’m moving to southern Manitoba this fall, and I have a pretty large lot that’s a fairly blank canvas to do whatever gardening/permaculture I want. I’m coming from Vancouver island, so struggling to find things that will survive in a hardiness zone of 2b/3a.
Has anybody grown one in this zone? What can you tell me?

I need to store roughly ~30,000L of water over a 6 month period in my semi-arid homestead. I can fill that in the winter season when it rains, from the roof and other structures.
What kind of water storage solutions have you guys done? I was thinking of building a smaller pond (~2m x 3.5m x 5m), but I think evaporation will be a big problem. So perhaps build a cistern of similar size, but then I need to figure out how to water proof the bricks/cement etc.
The simplest idea, but most expensive, is just to buy 3x 10,000L underground tanks at ~4000euros each.
Thoughts?
