We plan to use berms (about 4 ft high in our case), plus earthen walls 
and vegetation for sound blocking. Additionally muffling white noises 
can be created with falling water, bamboo in the wind, and lots of fruit 
means plenty of bird song. I've used larger ones in designs for clients 
to good effect.
