Dow Dominion Suburban Permaculture Project

This is an ongoing project to turn my typical suburban yard into a minimal-work food forest. Our property is just a third of an acre, which sits on the edge of a forested area with a small creek running through our back yard.I originally started my garden in 2012, as a way to supplement our diet with fresh, organic produce. I acquired a basic idea of how permaculture works (although I still have plenty to learn), and decided that I would implement permacultural designs in my gardens to the best of my ability from that point on.The main goal for the project is to obtain at least half of our family’s food directly from our yard during the production seasons.
