Episode Description from the Publisher

VIDEO VERSION HERE: https://youtu.be/mslUPM_z87U  Our pond was nearly 90% gone after an unusually dry stretch, creating a rare opportunity to bring in an excavator and tackle some much-needed pond work. In this episode, Coach Matt shares what the pond looked like during the drought, why we decided this was the right time to excavate, and what we hoped to accomplish before the water returned. It’s a real-world look at responding to changing conditions and making the most of an unexpected opportunity at Brook & Pond. This is the audio-only version of the Yard Coach video. To see the pond and excavation footage, look for “Drought Nearly Emptied Our Pond—So We Brought In an Excavator” on the Yard Coach YouTube channel.
