    Jim could you send that info to me via private message? That sounds like something I have been looking for-ie drought tolerant, grows anywhere, continuously produces!

    I would like to put my 2 cents in-take it or leave it: We bought a juicer and honestly the cost just to make 2 cups of juice is pricey! You get only a little amount of juice from most things. Apples produce the most but still takes 10+ apples just to make a small quantity. Plus the fruit part...

    I feel your pain! I want a full blown mini farm so badly and when I see horses or live stock offers that are amazing it is hard to not shove them all in my large backyard and pray no one can hear them LOL. I don't have many neighbors but I am pretty sure I would be discovered. Sometimes a...

    Thank you for looking! I know about the mesquite. But my proximity to a large issue prevents it from growing well where I am at. I have seen some prickly pear about 20 miles from me because there is a shop that sells it. I am sending you an IM about WHY things are different surrounding my direct...

    Grandma lived in Tuscan for 10 years. I live in another desert over here in California. I feel your pain as far as what will grow and what wont. Your climate is not like mine but at least we can cry on eachothers shoulders when something fails because we will understand the pain! I lost ALL of...

    I just got my first issue of Organic Gardening in the mail yesterday. It had good articles and recipes for canning. Unfortunately it didn't have any DIY project how to-except the recipes.

    So if I planted some in a raised garden tomorrow then I would have it until summer-we have different seasons. We don't get COLD. I am not sure how low the temps drop at night in the dead of winter but the daytime temps usually don't go below 55. Can I plant them next to other veggies or do they...

    Yes I know you were trying to help and I appreciate it. I have gone over that website meticulously in the past and aside from a certain breed of cacti, they have nothing for me. I was given another website to look at that I have never previously visited so hopefully it will provide me with...

    I already have. As stated be myself previously, the majority of desert plants that are online and the advice online are primarily for Arizona desert. I am 200+ feet below sea level without your wonderful monsoon rains. We are lucky to get a few inches a year. I am not too far from death...

    Yep one word-MONSANTO! Oh I did my college thesis on GMO and the crap MONSANTO (and a few others) have gotten away with is criminal! Our food supply is dangerously in the hands of greedy corporations. The stuff I dug up took hours and hours of research that most people are too lazy to look for...
