top is less than a year old and hasn't been watered (by municipal water) since last fall. The top image shows the space just after installation and the bottom picture is less than a year later showing the plants established in their environment. The shower drainage system was retrofitted into a greywater system and there is a rain barrel on the side of the house to harvest the rainfall. The dry creek doubles as rain tank over flow and shower greywater catchment which directly feeds the fruit trees. http://www.earthstewardecology.com/feautured daily 0.75 2025-10-27 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600327227-7P18OIUOHAWSSLVIRSNR/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.54.11%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600384965-RA0K4WQGV5C9CO64HA3J/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.54.04%E2%80%AFAM+%281%29.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600314701-GK1O04DT1HOKB9N998FR/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.00.23%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600745266-39OCCKHMJWITQEQ992WL/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.00.42%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600738575-9DCPGN5EUYC0E7LC73SR/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.02.02%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600316644-OJP07EWCJESFANZDN71R/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.59.48%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600325383-OHBH5XQO5RK7WQ3PBHKN/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+8.59.35%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600303017-07GXUY51B9S6QM52QFHZ/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.01.29%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600300224-CUUGR70N0I3PT5LSVW6E/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.01.34%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600290452-PCP0L0TW2HSJ25FS9NSG/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.01.56%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600739114-AQZGJHTZTM8K0OVUHRM4/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.02.23%E2%80%AFAM+%281%29.png feautured https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/580faa9f893fc0d20d2bd5de/1761600289614-D8O39O0RVUN5W755I6C7/Screenshot+2025-07-17+at+9.02.17%E2%80%AFAM.png feautured http://www.earthstewardecology.com/shop daily 0.75 2016-03-03
