Perennial Vegetables & 2014 seed order

Compost Station & Greenhouse made from pallets is underconstruction

We're gearing up for spring planting.  We hope to establish as much perennial food as is possible in this growing region.  By building our foundation of perennial foods we hope to minimize our labor input in the future.   We've just placed a pretty huge seed order supplemented by our Christmas money.  Some are to be sown immediately upon arrival and some we will start in the Greenhouse that is still under construction.  We've ordered a mix of Perennial vegetables, edible  perennial ornamentals, trees and erosion/maintenance controlling ground covers.  We have ordered some of our annuals, but will be getting more of the Garden Variety vegetables when the time comes. 

We are in the zone 6 growing region.
Below are the multitude of foods that should be growing here this summer.
