Frequently asked gardening related questions
Organic gardening manages water runoff from structures by seeing it as a resource to be harvested rather than waste. Install water butts to collect rainwater from roofs for irrigation. Direct excess runoff from paths or driveways into rain gardens or swales, where it can infiltrate the soil and be filtered by plants. Using permeable paving instead of impermeable surfaces also allows water to soak into the ground rather than running off, reducing strain on drainage systems and replenishing groundwater.
