How do you use your space?

[Homesteadmom]

I have always thought that these plants can/could be planted in a 'yard'--just replace: the foundation plants with the blueberries, shade trees with the pear and apples, specimen trees with the cherry and plum, let the brambles grow on a fence and use the grapes as a cover for the back porch. Put strawberries, herbs in hanging planters or in large pots. Sprinkle veggies thru out the landscape plantings and you can have a huge var. of veggies at your backdoor.. Almost every home has an 'outbuilding' that with modifications, could be used for a few hens.

You don't really need big--just think 'outside the box'.

I have been thinking this way as we needed to add shade trees to our property so they are fruit trees for now. After we get everything in fruit trees we want if we still need more shade trees then we will get regular ones, maybe.
