Hey Richard

What is the latest on your swales? I also live in the Missouri Ozarks and am facing a karst challenge. We have a spring that we really want to improve the recharge of and would like for it to release water slower and over a more spread out period (it floods in the spring and can go dry by July).

Anybody permaculturing in the Ozarks? I'd like to hear about your region specific designs. Does anyone else think the Ozarks should be their own region on this forum?

I sure like seeing all this Ozark talk. Normally I would tell a person that the Ozarks are full of ticks and are terrible, but as several of you know it is a great location--plenty of water, fuel, year round grazing and a relatively low population density. If it is to be filled I hope permaculture folks do it. We have been farming here now for about ten years with greenhouse, gardens, a spring, cattle, poultry, bees, meat goats, hair goats, milk goats, mushrooms. If I can help anyone with info about the area let me know.

P.S. I think the Ozarks should be a separate region from the Midwest. We have very little in common with the corn belt.
