High Tunnel - Swales for Flood Irrigation

http://www.edibleacres.org
Another example of working with a space, with the moment of flowing water, to design systems that help distribute and equalize water into soil. In this case a gently running hose can provide all the information one needs to sculpt a pathway to distribute water across an entire relatively level high tunnel. It can be adjusted and edited and refined over time, and quite literally in this case, was done with sharp stones and old bones. Some seriously old school techniques here.
