In Texas it is dry. I do not want to use irregation, because I do not necessarily want to grow things in rows. I would like to use techniques to reduce and hopefully eliminate the need for
irrigation, but I need to have productive gardens quickly for food, and
profit. How would you deal with this situation in order to balance maximum production with minimal irrigation, while transitioning to a food forest? And then once a forest garden is established, what are the water needs, and what are some techniques you use water wise?
