Farm- and community-scale pond guidelines: Hare’s Corner Pond Notes June24

1-page design for plastic lined Hare’s Corner pond

Here’s a video we put together with Tony Whelan of Canola Pictures for the BurrenBeo Hare’s Corner project. It’s designed to be a useful guide for digger drivers for lined pond installations. For unlined ponds the process is easier (and more eco-friendly). Just compact the base if you have good clay soils instead of laying the liner and otherwise proceed in a similar manner to that outlined in the video.
