Can harvests of food come with harvests of beauty?
I have planted thousands of #amorphafruticosа seeds and they continue to richly repay me -in windbreaks, in nitrogen rich mulch, in beautiful blooms and foliage covered in clouds of pollinators, and in more seeds!
It pays to educate yourself about unusual crops because mache is a delicious, hardy ground cover which, even outdoors in my usda zone 5 food forest understory, is green, and ready for harvest, now!
According to the National Resource Conservation Service (@usda) 27,000 gallons of water per acre can be stored per every 1% increase in organic matter.
"How extremely difficult -really impossible -is it to revive a limp, wilted, dying plant if you only have a single drop of water in your watering can?"
I planted my Chinkapin oak almost at the start of Mortal Tree about 7 years ago, and this year have my first acorns! About enough to make a acorn cupcake, but more to come in future years.
