 Sharing some notes here on a small hand dug pond that I'm cleaning up the edges on, clearing weeds around, and deepening, widening, and hopefully being able to re-seal in a more thorough way using a thick paste of clay and organic matter made from the elements in the pond itself.  It tends to want to hold water a bit already, so the hope is this treatment will help it really seal up in a more thorough way.  We'll share notes as it evolves for sure!
