  • Salt Spring Island, in coastal British Columbia, is a place of true majesty. The temperate forests respire water, cooling and humidifying the air, which lowers the pressure drawing in additional moisture. The continental biotic pump to an ancient ecosystem. The rain is heavy in the winter and spring but shifts to a long dry season stretching through summer, into fall. Capturing the seasonal rains when they are bountiful is essential to life here; animals like the beaver thrive by creating water retention landscapes - recharging the aquifers and enriching the surrounding ecology. We are doing this by using Holzer style water retention, ponds and terraces to balance the seasonal moisture throughout the year.

    I always worry when we get out the excavators and holding water for our own (human) use. How are we also sharing that water with our fellow species like deer, elk, etc. There's a strong tendency where I live to fence off man-made ponds with impenetrable field fencing that holds this precious resource just out of reach of our others who need it.

      Absolutely, this is a very important point. Whenever we build water bodies we are making sure that the water benefits all the life on that landscape, not just the humans. These water bodies providing drinking water sources during the dry summers for wildlife and insects, when previously these areas would have been dry.

    Amazing. Do you think this is out of reach because of price for most landowners?
