RE: How To: Pot Up Young Tree Seedlings - In this case: Kentucky Coffee Tree and Yellowhorn
Looks like you will have a little forest when all of those grow. Do you have plans already for the future of the trees?
Aside from planting a food forest, enjoying connecting with nature I hope one day to have more food than my family needs so I can share it with others, have an income or employ others or all three as the needs may be. I cannot predict my needs 10-20+ years from now but I will always need food and medicine and the earth needs more trees.
Sounds like you have lots of space for growing things then?
I grew up with a wide assortment of fruit trees. We preserved food in the summer so had fruit to eat year round.
Not yet but we are looking for a future homestead. Patiently waiting and sprouting seeds in the meantime :) Nice going with your preservation! We are in full harvest/preserving mode right now too!
Things have changed a lot since I was young. I am just recently getting back to some of that. I spent my young adulthood living in larger cities. But have recently come back to a more rural environment.
Very smart move to start your trees now. When you get the homestead you will have a great head start. Especially since trees take so long to be productive.
