This Build up your life: water series was focused mainly in three different areas:
1. Water retention in the landscape and groundwater restoration;
2. Water harvesting for households consumption;
3. Waste water treatment, re-use and re- introduction in the landscape. We started to introduce a lot of these elements at the farm and more are planned to be introduced in the next coming months. For the record we introduced: – 4 new water tanks, – lots of gutters with first flush systems – 4 infiltration ponds and swales – 2 fat splitters (one with 1000 litres for showers and other of 100 litres for a kitchen sink) – 1 biofilter for grey water system.
