    Yes @abitcoinskeptic ...

    "I think shrubs and trees are a good idea too if you have the patience."

    ... agreed, although for us the issue is different.

    Unwritten is the still uncertain answer to a key question. Where will we be living 2 to 3 years from now? Lots behind this question, which I chose not to even touch on in this post, but ... Perhaps I need to add a bit about that for a future post.

    For now, we'll focus on what we can experience with some vegetables and improving our strawberries, as far as some ROI on our efforts in our 2nd season, since bushes and trees require a multi-year maturation process ...

    Thanks for stopping by!

      That makes sense to me amd it is essentially the same reason I don't grow trees or shrubs. I have to replant every year.
      It does take a little of the permanent out of permaculture, but it is really a lifestyle. Trees and scrubs are also tougher and require more thinking as you can't move them year after year.
      That said, grow a variety of cabbages. Fast, easy to grow and harvest, nutritious, lots of meal choices.
