Dave Burton wrote:Something I did today, as a gardening and homesteading project in Longview, WA, was maintaining a couple trails on the property.
Since plums are expected to be ripe around the end of June, it is important that access to the plum trees is navigable. So, I used an electric weed-whacker to chop down the stuff growing on the trails.
And these are some of the plums that I'm looking forward to harvesting! (or at least, I'm fairly certain I identified them correctly?)

An important distinction: Permaculture is not the same kind of gardening as organic gardening.
Mediterranean climate hugel trenches, fabuluous clay soil high in nutrients, self-watering containers with hugel layers, keyhole composting with low hugel raised beds, thick Back to Eden Wood chips mulch (distinguished from Bark chips), using as many native plants as possible....all drought tolerant.

Gardens in my mind never need water
Castles in the air never have a wet basement
Well made buildings are fractal -- equally intelligent design at every level of detail.
Bright sparks remind others that they too can dance
What I am looking for is looking for me too!
