in 2017 I started planting on a 2 acre abandoned property.  We’re located only 10 miles south of the US Capitol but are surrounded by several hundred acres of forest and very few homes.  Our urban garden design, landscape architecture and permaculture techniques incorporate fruiting trees, fruiting shrubs, edible ground cover, edible flowers, and herbs and medicinal plants that will provide food for generations.  It’s a long and slow ‘haul’ as we adapt, learn new things, and are (usually ;) enjoying the process.
