Do you do follow-up videos to show what these ponds look like once everything has grown in?

another masterpiece, I love your work! God bless you!

Your ponds are a work of art in themselves! I only started watching your videos about 2 months ago and now I'm hooked! You are such an inspiration to myself and many others! Thank you!

While they do look great when you put them in, it would be even better if you could do a follow up or get the client to send some footage 6 months after installation, so that we can really see the intended result.

Every new pond that you construct, further assists wildlife

Not much better than watching Joel at work! I know I say this for every video, but it's truly gorgeous. Such an amazing sight to see

Another wildlife sanctuary well done! Wishing you a Happy Father's Day mate.

Slowed it down to catch more of the detail of the pond building. Amazing all that just from two of you.

Excellent video and more timely inspiration!

I am stateside and have a small fish pond (about 600 gallons). We have let the pond and surrounding area naturalize a bit over the past few years to encourage more wildlife.

We have been hearing a frog call over the past several weeks and finally located it in the shallow end of the pond! 🐸

Well, NOW I need to install a smaller wildlife pond for my new tenant and I was wondering "What Would Joel Do"?

And here is another excellent video demonstrating how to build one.

Thanks Joel!

The knowledge and the skills required in order to create these ponds just boggles my mind, but I'm so glad you have both! This will add so much beauty and interest to that expanse of lawn. Every one of these makes a difference. Keep up the great work!

Thanks Joel. From Rhodes Greece. This client must be very happy, can't wait to see the follow up video. Great idea to show some follow ups. I hope to see a video from your pond, within a month or 2 infant I can't wait but I also know, I have to.🎉❤❤❤

Great job Joel. That's going to be a jewel in a relativley plain garden. Great when clients take the decision to create one of these amazing habitats to many gardens are getting paved over and loads of sterile plantings. Keep the crusade going .

We nave a very small moulded pond which has a couple of water lilies one of which is definitely native. A couple of other plants and hornwort to keep it clear which works reasonably well. Frogs visit it and weve had a grass snake. The featured pond would take up the whole of our garden at least!

As always mate another amazing pond👍
When are we going to see an update on your own pond? Really interested in seeing how its looking now.

As always Joel, great video, keep doing what you do.
