Incidentally, you made me think about the piece of unoccupied land next to me. It's been for sale forever. I'd love to use it to plant stuff on, but it's all woods. Can't easily make that growable for produce, can you? I don't have heavy equipment, money or strong men around, so is there anything that grows well in the woods?

(OTHER THAN THAT REDHEN, don't say it!)

Mushrooms* and ginseng both grow in woods.

Sure..sure..

Huckleberries do pretty well in the shade.

Good ideas. It's shady woods, so I could see mushrooms doing well. Ginseng?? Never even thought of growing my own Ginseng... would have to look into that!

This is just reminding me that I want goats. They could enjoy all those things out in the woods! Would really be a bummer though, when someone eventually buys the land and says "Get your goats off my property".
