Description
The Plenitud PR team designed and terraformed along the slopes at their farm in Las Marías. Farming using permaculture principles has helped hold the soil, and the farm saw little erosion during Hurricane María and the months of rain after the hurricane. These terraces are an example of a no till farming method that helps build, strengthen and preserve soil instead of degrade and erode it.
