We are happy to introduce a one of a kind project and opportunity
designed by Sepp Holzer in May 2012. (www.Seppholzer.at)
A thriving complex of winding hugels that create courtyards filled
with permanent raised beds. The hugels are stocked with perennial
and self-seeding annual plants. The hugel courtyard, featuring over 1
kilometers of 6’ hugels, is sub-irrigated by surrounding ponds. Much
of the courtyard has already been fenced and has additional
irrigation installed for the hugels raised beds and gardens. The
irrigation is primarily fed by the uppermost pond and features a
back-up pump that draws water directly from the lower ponds.
The 3 acres of waterways feature seven distinct water bodies that can
be individually regulated. The energized and crystal clear waters of
the ponds vary in depth up to 16’ and are primed for a natural
aquaculture system; they already host fish and crawdad populations.
Each pond has a unique role in the system such as a fish nursery, a
swimming hole, providing irrigation, a wildlife habitat & turtle
nursery, or growing garden mulch.
The rest of the land features 25 acres of beautiful gentle accessible hillside rich in a variety of wildflowers and native plantsas well as
20 acres of sloped fenced pastures with stunning views over Flathead Lake and
the Mission Mountains.
