table and I can grow and put up enough for at least two families.

I am mulching the hell out of my back yard now. I had boxes of tomatoes last summer and will do much better this coming one. Read Ruth Stout to begin and that will get you going. Continue with One-Straw Revolution and that will get you into weeds to eat like purslane and dandelion greens and dandelion wine!

Wherever you see weeds, you can grow veggies. See your front yard and all the grass you have to mow. Mulch it now and dig places aside and plant in the spring. Do not dig it up! I repeat, do not dig it up! Stick to in season stuff. Use coldframes to extend the season. In my other place I never had to shop much. Got my milk from an Amish farmer and ate wonderfully. The downside is that you start getting really paranoid when you go to the supermarket because you are wondering how they grew it and harvested it.

Really it's so easy. No work. Mulch, plant and harvest. No weeding (just throw on another pile of mulch)hardly any watering. Plant harvest and eat. So nice to go out there and decide what to have for dinner today. Not Oh, I have to go to the store today. What shall I get for dinner? Do they have it? Is it fresh.

I am planning a fresh food restaurant in my little vision.

If you live in a place where they will complain if you plant veggies instead of grass, then try little circles intermingled with flowers as camoflage. Marigolds that repell insects etc.
