    It’s LITERALLY a forest!🤣 I love it.👍 to think that this is only one of your food forests is mind blowing! Thank you for the tour. I was wondering if you guys grew apples, but the video already answered the question! Also it must feel great to randomly find eggs on your homestead, doesn’t it?😂 Also, how do you guys get water to all the trees? Anyways, thank you guys so much for sharing! I am exited to see the next food forest video!

    Did you know that if you take your first fruits, first produce, and write that on them and take them to church and put in the collection pan, your harvest will produce way more than expected. Give God all the Glory!! God Bless you!!! Also did you know you can contact tree companies that shred their trees and they will for free dump the wood chips in your yard.

It’s the start of my 3 year gardening but there is still so much for me to learn and I appreciate you sharing your food forest. It’s inspirational to me. I’d love the idea of a growing that way. I look forward to hopefully learning more from each other as we grow!

    That is an excellent use of land. I am working toward something similar on my property in zone 8a Ga. If I were you, I would look into getting some of the cold hardy citrus hybrids for the property. There is the Thomasville and Yuzu that are good down to the single digits, plenty for zone 8a.
