Food forest concept has been really cool to get into

I went from prefering perneals, to permaculture, to full on food forest goals. I love it. Got a few buckets of apples this year and my first gallon of elderberry juice. Was able to pick some nice mulberries and have some tomatios on the way.

All of which I just pruned this year. Which is A TON less work then tilling, planting, weeding, and watering.

Got a fig tree on the way, mint taking over a good patch. Still figuring out what guilds of plant really work on my hugalculture walls where I live.

Honestly I love foraging my own yard vs feeling like it was a chore I had to keep up on.
