Erosion Control

For the past month, we have been working on controlling the erosion in one of the corridors of our campus. The area (at the back side of our campus near our chicken coop) was being quickly eroded away from high levels of rainwater and wind. The project will slow down storm water runoff and stabilize the slope of the terrain to control loss of soil,vegetation, and terrain. We created elevated berms and limestone rock grades to control and channel storm water. Students gathered limestone rocks from our nature trail to create rock weirs to capture sediment and redirect water flows.
Below are photos of our progress.
