Terrace

First stage of my first terrace.  Any pointers I'm doing two here

A bit more information as to what you hope to achieve will help.

Stabilize hill and plant amaranth as this gets full southern exposure

Getting a cover crop planted asap will help with erosion. I generally do earthworks in october, when i can get annual rye sprouted in a week.

I read about using plant rows as an erosion filter. In my area that may be a line of blackberries  or asparagus,  or both. It could trap sediment and start building up soil. Asparagus can take additional soil on top year after year. Maybe plant it shallower than the normal.

I'm planting amaranth but not till spring

Almost done with first tier
