Fields of HeshbonPermaculture design that works with the land
Permaculture means designing a property so water, sun, soil, plants and people support each other. In the high desert, that starts with water: catching it, slowing it and putting it where it does the most good.

Permaculture Design FAQ
What is permaculture design?
An approach to designing land so it is productive and self-sustaining, using natural patterns of water, soil, plants and sun. The result needs fewer inputs over time.
Does permaculture work in the high desert?
Yes, and it's especially valuable here. Harvesting rain, building soil and choosing adapted plants make the most of limited water.
Do I have to install everything at once?
No. We create a phased plan so you can build in stages as time and budget allow.
Can you install the design too?
Yes. We do the earthworks, catchment, irrigation, beds and planting.
