Keyline Design is informed by the topographical character of the landscape.  Careful observation and planning lead to designs that optimize the water resources available on a property.  By capturing and storing rainfall in earthen ponds and/or water harvesting swales (ditches dug along contour), it becomes possible for a landowner to develop their own on-site water security throughout the course of the year, enabling them to weather their way through droughts, continuing production.  Water is life - without a reliable source any and all agricultural production is limited.  Even in the driest of climates, Keyline designs can provide property owners with the peace of mind of a resilient, reliable, productive landscape.
