>>2104900interestingly, i have softly dammed up the majority of my precipitation runoff into a now-shaded pond of sorts. even in the dead of summer i have ~2' of standing water here. i am including it in my first goat paddock, hence my initial poll to the audience that no one has taken a stab at:
any recommendations for how to help this pond support drinkable water for animals? i'm thinking some pioneer plants to fix aeration and then stocking it with [[animal]] to help filter and clean. but i'm an idiot and haven't found much.
