Hey yall, I'm up in Northern Arizona, zone 6b. I just moved here onto a sage and rabbitbrush covered 1acre plateau plot. we have one juniper tree and a few juniper shrub/bushes.
I was hoping to do some small earthworks around the existing brush and tree to support their growth, and start some more native flowers and grasses come spring, just kind of focus on supporting and expanding the areas that already have some growth.
I just dont want to damage the roots and the growth thats already there, its basically flat land, there is a minor slope.
I was thinking of digging down and adding some mulch to create a basin, but i havent seen many examples or found much info yet on doing something like this with already existing trees and brush.
Would appreciate some thoughts and opinions!
