How to build a forest WITHOUT water – Urban Permaculture 101

Bought a plot of land for investment, and it’s lying barren for many years ?
Wanted to grow some trees on it, but decided not to, because there is no irrigation facility ?
Bought a managed farmland, but the developer abandoned the project after all plots were sold out ?
Borewell dried out in your patch of land, and now its lying barren and unused ?

If any of this sounds like you, you must watch this video. Krishanu had purchased a quarter acre plot on the outskirts of Bangalore, and has managed to build a food forest in that, while just spending 1350/- for two water tankers, during the entire period. The last time this land was irrigated was four years back, with one of those tankers. The tiny forest farm stands tall among the neighbouring properties which seem to be struggling with water and fertility woes.

How is this possible? It is possible because he focused on what he calls “building a lake under my land”.

Learn a step-by-step approach to create a green paradise on a barren vacant land parcel, without needing irrigation, using permaculture techniques, channelizing the resources that nature provides us so generously.
