Harvest more and do more with interconnected rain gardens that bioremediate (naturally filter) and use stormwater within living filters of soil and vegetation. That free irrigation water then grows more shade, beauty, food, medicine, wildlife habitat, flood control, and more!
You can maintain the system to your desired appearance - wild, manicured, or anything in between; the basic concepts presented in this video remain the same.
This video shows you ways to increase the water-harvesting capacity of street-side, street runoff-harvesting basins in the public right-of-way by creating connected basins separated by a pathway and underground utilities.
Basins can be connected with a gradual dip in the path (0:54)
or 3"-diameter pipe installed at a 2% slope (1:45)
Additionally, this video shows you how to direct runoff from a driveway to adjoining rain garden with a simple diversion berm (3:32).
