Dry Creek Bed | No-Mow Forest Backyard | Inver Grove Heights, MN
Because of the sloping terrain the backyard was always swampy and mushy. Improving the site to enable water to flow through the yard and infiltrate into the ground was a top priority.
The drainage issues were put to rest by building a creek bed from real river rocks.
Bonus – when the stream bed is dry it adds a Zen element to this already tranquil backyard.
