Wow, I didn't realize you were from Texas!
The property is east of Waco, severe farm country.
Used to live in San Antonio and have an organic garden + water harvesting.
I just got into permaculture, mostly because of all the issues I encountered gardening.
I am the definition of newbie in this regard, so forgive my ignorance.
Please fantasize away! I honestly need all the ideas I can get. The mulch piles would work well for me, since there are lots of mesquite that need to be chopped. Do you keep those mulch piles in a shaded area? I have a hard time determining how much sun my baby trees need. Thank you for the apple seed link, tree seeds are not my strong side so I need some pointers
As far as property goes, there is soooo much not being used! The problem is that landowners seem hesitant to advertise.
What nitrogen fixing crop would you recommend here? Something that can grow in the clay?
My first order of business is improving the soil, and stop the water run off, but I can't get animals until a year from now so I'm limited.
