“I installed a natural flowing pond and the water runs right into the floor, but my favorite part just might be the outdoor shower where all the water, you guessed it, waters my front yard orchard.”
On , Kevin Li, Cofounder at Farmstead, spoke about water recycling during I bought a house and tried to turn it into a homestead... on EpicGardening.
Kevin Li, cofounder of Farmstead, described a two-year project to transform his newly purchased house into what he called a "high-tech Urban Homestead." In a December 2022 video, Li stated that he installed approximately 15 raised garden beds in his front yard and planted a row of citrus varieties, including Yuzu lemon. He also said he planted artichokes and six rare varieties of dragon fruit, and that a pipe carrying laundry water irrigates that area. Li said his backyard includes 25 solar panels on the roof, a chicken coop he referred to as an "egg machine," a natural pond, and an outdoor shower whose water he noted irrigates his front yard orchard. He acknowledged the setup might be "a little overkill" and "a little fancy," but said he wanted to demonstrate how possible it is to get started on such a project.
