I love them. They were my mom’s favorite. The seeds I have are from plants I have grown the past 3 years. They produce a lot!

Thanks. Takes a lot of work but I love being outside with the plants.

Are these are these units plantings?

Units as in numbers of plants? If so, then yes.

I have PawPaw fruit trees. They are really exotic for a native NA fruit. They grow in zone 7. But takes a long time before they produce.

If anyone is interested, my garden this year (so far). Intentionally leaning more towards perennial food sources. Also, this doesn’t include the hundreds of various perennial flowers and wild, medicinal plants. I’m sure I have forgotten something.

Wow, so does it spread year to year?

Replying to Avatar Steven

That’s awesome. I have 60 acres and 12 is farmed. But not by me - I lease the fields. You need literally millions in equipment to farm fields and it would make no sense.

i don’t use chemical fertilizers, pesticides or herbicides so expensive equipment wouldn’t work for me anyway.

Replying to Avatar Scurvydog

Animals or crops? Is the rest not useable for farming?
Avatar
Amber Lake Farm 2y ago

crops. more is useable but there is a time and energy factor

Replying to Avatar DefiantDandelion

French sorrel

Green garlic, (typical garlic with small bulbs harvested for their tops and flower stems)

Onion or garlic chives.

Haskap / honey berry is on the edge in 7

Nut shrubs / trees

I want to try Good king Henry don’t know what it tastes like but good for shoots and leaves like spinach for cooking.

Lavender and fruit/nut trees are about all I could really suggest. Muscadine maybe.
