BRING IN THE BUFFERS/ tip 9


#9. Do you live up hill down by the water or just anywhere and you want o plant fruit, veggies, or flowers? Buffers are your answer for not getting soil in or around your local water sources. There are three types of buffers, filter buffers, which provides permeate vegetation along a pond, river, or any other water way. There are also forest buffers which sit along a fast river. Last but not least are contour buffers that are mainly used at farms, they are made out of stripe of permanent sod stuck in-between rows of crops.
