We've been vegetable gardeners for many years starting plants each Spring from seeds in our greenhouse. We continue growing throughout the growing season in our greenhouse and various garden beds in our backyard. Over the years, plants we have grown include many varieties of tomatoes, lettuces, spinaches, garlics, onions, scallions peppers, eggplants, melons, squashes, corns, asparagus, herbs, cabbages, Brussel sprouts, carrots, cucumbers, and a few others I have probably left off this list.
We love vegetable gardening, but we've been looking for a new challenge to add into our love for growing food.
A few months back, while surfing gardening channels on YouTube, we came across The Gardening Channel With James Prigioni. (
https://www.youtube.com/channe...) James' videos chronicle the food forest he started in his New Jersey backyard about 8 years ago. Becoming more familiar with James' videos and reading more about food forests, we decided to start our own, and so we set off on this road in recently with pretty much a blank slate in the field behind our house.
I would love to discuss this topic with anyone interested here at the NGA Forums....
If you would like to read more about our fledgling food forest, I have started a website that will act as a "journal" as we attempt to build our food forest:

Edit - May 21, 2022: I no longer have the website mentioned above. It was just taking too much of my time to do it justice. Now, I make postings in this thread instead.
