Specializing in Passive & Active Rainwater Harvesting Systems

Phoenix, Arizona

This is part 1 of one of the most extensive projects we’ve ever worked on. This project included the planting of over 40 trees, dozens of pollinator plants & native shade trees, full house gutter system, new irrigation & lighting systems, comprehensive passive rainwater throughout, mulching, fountains, trellises, and shade structures. Our client really did his homework and we helped him pull off the big vision. This was one of the most rewarding projects to date. Part 2 will include the full backyard setup so stay tuned for that.

What a beautiful morning here in the valley. We got some bad news this weekend on the massive water cuts coming from the Colorado River for all who live in Arizona. We knew this day would come. Luckily there are solutions to living an abundant life even with less water. The world is becoming a more serious place.

If you are serious about implementing the solutions at your own house and land, then reach out to us at Galaxy Gardens because we got serious solutions to a world with serious issues. We can help you start optimizing your outdoor water use and storage. We can help bring shade, food and medicine to you and your family. We can drought proof your yard from the weather extremes that have become the norm.

Here’s an update on our agroforestry/food forest setup at Galaxy Gardens HQ. Most of our trees have survived the intense heat of this summer. In fact, our local gopher has taken out more trees than Mr Sun. The support species model really works. Mesquite, moringa and eucalyptus are our most common choices to protect our fruit trees. We still have a long way to by adding even more support plants in our existing tree lines. The flood irrigation is an obvious advantage but this can all be done on drip lines alone.

After last night’s rain the basins are brimming.   Infinite gratitude for the rain.  🌧️🌎❤️

Here’s an example of hardscape hellscape. Entombing your side yards in concrete or pavers leads to the heat island nightmare we live in here in Phoenix. Please check out the content of our friend the_garden_nerd. He’s a lover of ecology and is just beating the drum on strategies to counteract the heat island effect.

Hopefully you all are enjoying the incredible amount of rain we just got in the Phoenix area. If you want to learn more about how to harvest this rain, I will be teaching a class tomorrow morning in Scottsdale all about it. This is in collaboration with Wild Cactus Farm, that is run by a wonderful permaculture practitioner who is putting on this education series. Rainwater harvesting is the first class so I hope to see some of you there if you can make it. See full class schedule in comments.

This is our first time working with Kurapia sod, as we normally are installing the plugs. It’s super nice because our client has an instant lawn, while the plugs take a couple weeks/months to completely fill out. Kurapia is a low water use ground cover that also will grow in the shade, unlike Bermuda grass. Kurapia also flowers and is an amazing bee attractor when in bloom.

Morning Glory vine (Ipomoea purpurea) is just an absolute stunner of a vine when it’s in its full glory like it is right now. Native to Mexico and central Mexico.
