11/22 Hands On Workshop Water Cycle Restoration: Contour Swales & Spillways
Join us for a practical workshop exploring contour swale design and earthwork. We’ll use a laser level and hand tools to fine-tune an existing swale and learn how subtle grade changes can slow, guide, and safely distribute water across the landscape.
Depending on conditions, we may also explore spillway design and rock armoring to strengthen water flow and durability.
You’ll gain hands-on skills you can take home and apply on your own land, farm, garden, or community.
