So you want a cold hardy permaculture food forest? Here are some of my favorite plants.

Come with me for an early morning walkabout, and see what we have growing in our cold hardy permaculture food forest - USDA zone 4/5.

Edit: I said Fred was on a Lupine, but that could be a goldenrod now that I look at it again. There are lupines in that area, and the single-leaves look similar, but this appears to be a goldenrod.

Not all my favorite plants were here, but a walkaround showing all my plants would take 2 hours!

Hopefully this video gives you some ideas of plants you can put in your own food forests, and other tips with pollination of your fruit trees and shrubs.

Much love, and keep planting! The world depends on us to be good stewards of the Earth.
