RE: Homestead Is Getting A Modern Update With New 3D Printers And Some Rainy Realizations

it's going to take more than some boards. Gonna need to rent a ditch witch or something to dig some serious drainage. It's not a small amount of water that flows through there. I would like to divert it to a brook that already leads to the creek. Been studying it since the big rain the other night.

Berms are generally constructed with a combination of rocks, logs, clay, leaves and dirt. Plenty of different options besides that of course. Take it all with a grain of salt but I have spent a few decades now dealing with runoff and water management on various sites and I gotta say... try the simplest solutions first.
Thanks for the suggestions.
You are welcome. You are on the right track by first finding where the water is coming from and doing your best to understand the terrain.
