Perryland Off The Grid

The primary goal of this project is to green the Carrizo Plain through reforestation. It may be impossible to create an abundant food forest due to the salted landscape dominated by Soda Lake and extreme weather conditions, however it is desired to at least be able to support around a 10% fruit/nut tree population. The Carrizo Plain is characterized by cold winters, hot dry summers, intense sunshine, extremely alkaline soil salted with sodium carbonates and sodium nitrates, ground water only 8 to 12 feet below the surface but briney down to 300+ feet below surface.
