Edible Landscaping – Living on the Cheap and Easy Part 1
This is the first in a series that I will be doing on the subject of living on the cheap and easy. I am an expert in doing that. When it is appropriate, I will try to point you to additional resources on the subject.

Great ideas in this video. I’m going to be moving into a new house next month and will be doing edible landscaping and this video along with the links you added will be very helpful. Seems like common sense to at least get something out of your landscaping if you’re going to be putting so much into it (water, time, money, etc.). Thanks!

Thanks for the video! I wish I had a yard. Maybe I can put some plants in a pot on the patio. The patio isn’t enclosed though. What do you do if a stray dog pees on your tomatoes?

That really sucks big time. No chance for some pots or planters?

I think humans are just about the only creatures on earth that don’t even recognize food when they see it. Incredibly, a great deal of good free food is growing right outside most people’s door. Most food plants are quite pretty when planted with beauty in mind. They are great for landscaping. If everyone did this, it would certainly impact our national fuel consumption. Transporting food that can grow in your yard to you is silly and wasteful. Individuals can cut their own food costs a lot.

Thank you! In this day and age, if you can get a free bite to eat right outside of your own door, it makes no sense at all to eat something that has been treated with Goddess only knows what from across the country.
