French Drain Fun

Maximizing water use and retention is a priority for us desert-dwellers. The latest step on my training was on October 25, 2009 at Nick's home (http://www.azhomegrownsolutions.org/profile/Nick) where I gained first-hand knowledge on how to install a French drain. The history and technical details and considerations of such a project may be viewed here:

Definately come to the adobe workshop 2-5. We will talk bricks during that time. The morning is about casting poured adobe, afternoon is all about bricks. Sunday might get cancelled.

Would you be willing to write a blog of your experience at the French Drain class today so we can reference it in the newsletter that goes out on 11/2? Nick posted some pics that I'm sure you can use.

Please let me know.

Through me is probably best. This is a question we're trying to answer for ourselves so until we figure out "a system" - this will work.

Thanks!

Hi Chris - hmmmm....thought I sent you an email on Nicks response. He's ok with you paying what you can (even if it's $0)

I won't be at the event (when you set up events on this site you are a "default" participant) - but HAVE FUN! We'll run into each other sometime soon!
