Edible Backyard.

[Guest guest]

I wish I was that far along. If I lived in edible paradise, I would

have time to read and write to my hearts content.

I’m so

jealous Peg – We have

about 5 ½ acres but less than half that is usable (we’re on part

of a very nice pond which takes at least half) and the rest is

questionable. I

too, have tried to squeeze in edible things here and there – what zone

are you in Ohio?

I’m borderline Zone 4/5 which drastically reduces what I could possibly

grow here. Hazelnuts would be cool as would almonds, cashews and the

whole 9

yards J

I don't

have

an almond tree, don't think

they grow in Ohio,

but I have been trying to plant as much as I can. My goal is for my

entire backyard to be edible. I only have 1 1/2 acres, but I've

darn near planted the whole thing! I have

apples, pears, peaches, elderberries, strawberries, blueberries. Also

planted plums, currants, serviceberries, hazelnut, paw paw, gingko, and

many

others. Some are producing, but others are still small, but

thriving. I also have numerous herbs planted everywhere.

 

 

 

 

 

I also have

a flock of backyard

chickens. I never knew how much fun chickens could be! And of

course, I plant a garden every year.
