Erosion Control that Works for your Property or Farm....Prepping for the extreme!

What happens here

Josh examines a path that was previously filled with topsoil/fill dirt, graded, and seeded. Despite these efforts, a heavy rain event washed it out again. He had to use a Ventrac with a landscape rake to push the material back up. He notes that some grass has started to grow back, but large sections remain bare, indicating the need for more effective erosion control.

Goal: Revisit the first eroded path to understand past unsuccessful repair attempts and plan for improved, eco-friendly solutions.

Tools and materials

  • Ventrac with landscape rake
  • Grass Seed N/A
  • Topsoil/Fill Dirt N/A

Neeraj father let me explain what we got here so there was a area that was about this wide that was washing so I took some topsoil slash filled dirt and filled it all in dressed it all up put grass seed on it and we got blasted with like an inch of rain in like 15 minutes and it all washed off right down the hill so I went right back grab the ventrac with the landscape rake on it and pushed it all right back up the hill with the exception of what already came up so a lot of the grass has already came up here we're gonna recede it we're gonna spread that straw and then we're gonna put in some measures to stop erosion there are these big logs that basically are full of straw it's a mesh net on the outside of it if you guys know what they're called post it down there in the video description I can't remember what the heck those guys called them but its erosion prevention measures to stop this water to slow it down water is not the problem speed and water is the problem let's go look at number two we're gonna call this they're running
