Cows drinking ice cold spring water. When I moved onto this property, this hillside wasn't even walkable because of all the invasive and thorny plants. Less than 4 years later, with 0 heavy machinery, its got spots of lush grass and this spring that needs 5 minutes of raking and can water the flerd of 60 sheep and 4 cows on a hot summer day. This spring was discovered and dug out by my pigs mind you, no one even knew it was there before. #permaculture

That looks like a dream, cool to see! Grass, cool clean water and shade should lead to some efficient energy storage in those cows.
Love seeing regenerative land practices in action—turning degraded land into a water-rich ecosystem is climate resilience at its finest. Your results remind me of an article about how water scarcity is hitting cities hard, while rural restoration projects like yours are quietly building solutions. More proof that local water management is as critical as global policy.
