My wife and I have a ~20 acre farm that we are trying to develop along permaculture principles.
We have a 1/4 mile gravel road on the property that leads downhill to a circle at the house. It transports a lot of rain water that we want to divert to growing areas and possibly a pond. The circle itself has about four vehicles parked at it, plus a refueling station for the tractor, plus a planned wash station to take mud and frozen winter slush off the vehicles and tractor.
I would like to design a drainage system at the circle that can isolate the possibly contaminated water and divert it further downhill for some kind of treatment. We have another 1/4 mile of forest and creeks below the house.
Thanks for any resources or ideas!
