Help Us Plan Our Food Forest
We just received news that we will be receiving a grant through our local conservation district. We will have $10,000 to buy plants. What are you interested? What should we grow? Attached is a list of 50 productive plants for this region that we put in many of our designs. What stands out to you as something we should plant.

If I had the money I think I would consider trialing a few species that might normally be better suited for just outside our zone here, to help my food forest be more climate change resilient.
Camelids in permaculture?
Hey all. We have found ourselves in a position to accept a small herd of alpacas on our farm. I've been devouring as much information as I can get my hands on before move-in day, but so far I'm not finding a ton of info about using alpacas or other camelids in a permaculture system. Does anyone here raise them, or know of someone who does that has it documented somewhere? Thanks!

Camelids in permaculture?
Introduce Yourself! Where are you from? What are you passionate about? What are your goals within this community?
Hi All! My name is Mary (she/her), and I live in Arlington, WA on a beautiful 20 acre farm, Pragtree Farm. I have been co-stewarding this land with three of my friends for a couple of years now and am honored to be a part of this intentional community. This farm has a rich history of many hands contributing to caring for this space in a way that helps to regenerate the earth. Tending to the land is truly one of my passions. I am excited to connect with you all and be a part of this collective, where we can share what we are working on and what we are learning and get feedback from others on how to best take care of the land (and each other). I am a landscape/farm designer who is passionate about regenerative farming practices. I love bringing designs to life by embracing my artsy side, but really, it is my goal to help others and put my all into this "work." I want to continue learning how I can help land owners, fellow stewards, enthusiasts, and daydreamers explore the tools it takes to create a sanctuary that fully embodies permaculture ethics and is soothing to the soul. We are in this together and can't wait to meet you! P.s. Say hi to your dog for me.

Hey all, I'm Mary Ellen (she/her). I currently steward 2 acres of paradise in Snohomish County, WA, USA (Stillaguamish land) along with my wife and several dear friends. We have been here since early 2020 and are keeping ourselves very busy raising layer and broiler chickens, ducks and geese, sometimes turkeys and quail, dogs and cats, goldfish, bees, worms, and black soldier flies, and growing veggies, flowers, all manner of perennials in our food forest, and lots and lots of biomass in the form of weeds. 😂 We also live for free compost materials/animal feed and now have regular deliveries/pick ups of wood chips, spent gourmet mushroom blocks, spent brewery grains, stale baked goods, and squishy produce. Happy to be here, I love chatting about permaculture. 😊
