New house, heavily compacted clay. I'm planning on turning my side yard into workable soil and I like the idea of using daikon Radish to till it. About 30'x50'. What I'm unsure of is...how? Is there a method or tool that works best for that? I've always just hand planted everything but this one feels a bit daunting to try by hand. 😅

I have five acres of (illegally) clearcut property thanks to the previous owner. It has about 13 trees, six of which are apple/crabapple trees. We also have a ton of deer. I mean, a ton! Our property has become a fawn nursery, where the doe come to raise their babies until they’re ready to go on on their own. They find ways into my garden and will obliterate everything if they do get in.

That said, I’ve been looking into planting a permaculture garden since we moved in, but everything I’ve tried planting gets eaten by the deer. The only thing they haven’t touched is sage and irises. They’ve eaten all of the native plants I’ve planted, like coffee berry, redbud, and pine tree saplings.

Has anyone had success with a permaculture garden while having deer on the property. Ultimately, not having them on the property is not an option; they live here, too. Would I have to just plant so much that they couldn’t possibly eat it all? Seems like I might be in over my head with the amount of work in my future.

Either bare root or potted, what is the most economical way you’ve found to source trees - edible and not?

Does anyone know who created this term?

Also, what do people think about the term “food forest” vs. “Forest garden”.

Personally, I think the term food forest is misleading, making it sound like everything in the system is food just waiting to be eaten. I prefer the term forest garden, which implies tending like a garden and also an aspect of wildness like a forest. In most forest gardens I’ve been in (hundreds, between the US and Abroad) the food produced is a very small amount compared to the overall productivity of non-food biomass and species that don’t produce food. The term “food forest” makes it sound like we are walking through candy land, eating everything that grows. In most forest gardens I have been in, this is not true, just like the idea that permaculture is low input (ask anyone who has a forest garden if it is low-input).

Looking for feedback on a project to build tiny homes on small farms. Idea is to use farmworker housing allowances to build units where people can live/work part-time on a small farm providing a bit of rent and labor. TheSunflowerCollective.org
