Re: garden wishlists

[(Anonymous)]

My goal is a kind of permaculture backyard, where there's a lot more things growing that I can eat (or the birds, etc. can eat) than there is grass. I want more fruit trees, and eventually hope to have a few paths between the growing things that are made of wood chips or stones, so the ground is protected and getting built up. I have some things already planted, and I'm on the way, but it will take some time, and the plan may change along the way. Most of what I want to grow is fruit trees, berry bushes, asparagus: stuff I actually want to eat and won't go to waste. I don't like green peppers, hot peppers, a lot of things that grow easily in a tiny backyard garden that has to be replanted every year. Tomatoes are great, but a few tomatoes go a long way for me. I do plan to grow lettuce and a few annuals every year, and hope to introduce some wildflowers if I can as well.

I don't know if it will turn out as "proper" permaculture, but the idea of building up the soil and growing as much as possible in the space I have, like a natural system, a forest, which is perfectly healthy even with things planted closely together (and perhaps because of it). I've been inspired by reading and watching things about permaculture, and right now a huge inspiration is Colette O'Neill with her YouTube channel (Bealtaine Cottage), especially how she says to plant and let the earth decide what will grow, and to trust your intuition, and try things and find out. She basically grew a whole forest on worn-out land in less than twenty years without being an expert or listening to experts. She's very much about Mother Earth and healing the planet, and it's kind of amazing. I used to think stuff like that was kind of wacky but it's really speaking to me lately, especially as I'm so fed up with the way men in general and the masculine attitude of needing to "dominate" the earth seems so destructive. I want to work with the earth as much as I can, the way she does.

I have a lot less land, and am a lot more focused on growing fruit. It's really important for me to grow things; it seems to be something I need, emotionally as well as physically. (It's good exercise, if I pace myself and don't overdue, and I eat more healthily when I'm growing things myself.)

There's more but this is long enough!

Yeah I love the idea of permaculture but there's not enough natural water here for more than chaparral, so I want to plant the park strip and front yard with mostly drought tolerant plants and save the water hogging fruit and veggies and flowers for the back yard. There's a native oak and a native walnut out front already, but I want to add native currants and elderberries and maybe a native cherry. Macadamia, mulberry and olive aren't native, but can take some drought, so if I can fit them in I will. Good luck with your food forest.
