Why install a natural pond near a vegetable garden?

• Your amphibians will feed on slugs and insects (aphids).
• The pond water reflects the sun's rays (source of heat).
• A pond is favorable for a micro-climate
• It brings biodiversity to the garden
• You can wash your soil-filled tools in the pond.

You can integrate fish and develop an aquaponics project. How to create a natural pond in your garden? It is important for you to distinguish between a natural pond and a garden pond.

In general, the natural pond will be "green" because it will not be equipped with mechanical filtration. A garden pond is equipped with a complete filtration system to make the water clear and limpid. In a pond, we just add a small pond air pump to promote the development of aquatic life.

To create the natural pond, you will need to provide planting areas:

• 0-20CM area
• 20-50CM area
• Area from 50 to 100CM (for example a water lily).

Then, once everything is digging and "thinking", you can put on a pond protection felt and a pond cover . You have a question? Contact us via info@foudebassin.com
