20 year military veteran trained in aviation maintenance and training course development and presentation.
I found the price and quality of the food I was eating unacceptable and unsustainable. I began planting a small raised bed garden that expanded into 600+ sqft. I then started looking into perennial planting that would produce with less maintenance and by listening to the TSP got my first taste of permaculture.
While I still maintain my raised beds for annual veggies, I've started what you might call nano-forests in my small suburban lot. 5 small islands with a fruit tree and some support plants, root crops, vines and a few herbacious plants. I very excited to keep learning about how I can maxamize my results using these small plantings.
