    Two methods of watering are used. Watering is done as seldom as possible. Mulchng conserves much water.
    Water is collected in four barrels from the downspouts of the house. It is accumulated in a dip barrel and transported to the garden area in a wheelbarrow. Only the root area of the plants get water so there is little wastage. If rainwater is insufficient then a hose using a “magic Wand” is used to direct the city water into the root area.
