Hello, my wife and I live in Thailand on just over an acre and we have been applying permaculture principles.
I am quite determined to begin cover cropping around my trees and adding some dense forage, but my wife has brought up many concerns mainly over the large amount of dangerous snakes in our area. About 1/3 of our land is allocated to rice field and some bananas in between, leaving us not too much room to allocate to nature. Even a simple idea as polycultures or composts seem to add some danger to our garden, which is located not farm away from the house.
Our area has massive king cobras, and many other types of venomous snakes. So I guess my question is how can I avoid a tightly trimmed lawn, a mono-culture garden, and also prevent my wife from dying when entering the garden.
