Dirt Lockers are a unique terraced row planting system designed to combat erosion and promote healthy plant growth. Their ingenious design captures rainwater, preventing runoff, and the strategically placed plants, with their extensive root systems, further stabilize the soil.  This makes them perfectly suited for the unique challenges presented by wildfire-ravaged landscapes....
