Food Forest Terracing & Passive Water Harvesting Earthworks

This video details a passive water harvesting and erosion control earthworks project designed and implemented by 7th Generation Design in California's Central Coast region.

The design included the formation of four terraces, a tractor access road, two swales, and a series of six media luna flow concentrators and flow spreaders to transit water down the steepest slopes in a non-erosive fashion. This design lays the groundwork for future food forest plantings going in during mid-winter of 2022.
