That’s the name!
It’s David the Good’s Natural Organic Grocery Row Agroforestry Soil-building System!
I have been starting some plants indoors for eventual release into the system.
Pomegranates, lemon grass, potatoes, bananas, figs and sweet potatoes. After all the cold we’ve had this winter, I think the bananas will fail in the gardens, though. Maybe I’ll grow some in a greenhouse instead.
And here are some of the perennials I purchased to plant.
That’s a lot of berries!
And it’s just a start. My Chinese chestnuts and other trees are still being delivered. In the mix above are chaste trees, raspberries, blackberries, pomegranates and figs. Mulberries, peaches, plums, apples, pears and other fruits are still to come. I should get those tomorrow at another nursery.
Next I will need chop-and-drop species to mix in for the soil-building part of this system. Those will mostly be started from seed and should include cassia, eleagnus, locust, T. diversifolia and more.
The NOGRASS garden is going to rock.

Have you thought about the new blight-resistant American Chestnut variety? https://acf.org/
I would love them if you have a source. From the ACF you get 4 seeds for a $300 membership. I will pass on that.

However, I have planted Dunstan chestnuts in the past. If I can find more, I will plant them here too.
I’m in the same boat. I might risk it if I had _your_ green thumb and experience. If they’re that rare perhaps there is a window to sell propagations at a good peofit before they become generally available.
This is the way.
