Anything perrenials rustic enough who can survive occasional summer frost. Bonus point if you have produce the seed yourself. I don't have running water or greenhouse. Things like beans and tomatoes don't survive and produce here in my garden. i'll browse some B.C. catalog, been some months i'd think to adding more. plants. Sepp holzer grains would be cool, but it seem impossible to find.

If you can't find any Sepp Holzer grain, try winter rye. The only difference I've heard of between the two is that the Holzer grain might be a bit taller on average. For my rye, it seems like the biggest factor in how tall it gets is how loose the soil is. Really hard packed stuff will get me mini 2 foot tall stalks. Loose soil can produce stalks over 7 feet.
My rye was originally collected from the stuff the ministry puts down on roadsides for erosion control, so it's nothing special.

Could be funny to try. I'm due to plant cereals in the garden. I've 8-12 inch of top soil, so it should grow very high !

I don't like that guy. The tiny ad agrees with me.
