Growing edible leafy greens, such as jamaican sorrel, katuk, and sissoo spinach, can provide a continuous source of fresh, nutritious food throughout the summer.
Leafy greens are low in calories and high in vitamins and minerals.
Eating leafy greens can help lower the risk of heart disease, diabetes, and certain types of cancer.
Leafy greens are easy to grow and can be harvested multiple times throughout the growing season.
Growing your own food can help reduce your carbon footprint.

In this video, I’m sharing raw footage from my permaculture garden over the past several years. You’ll see how my garden has evolved and how I’ve incorporated permaculture principles into my gardening style. From companion planting to rainwater harvesting, I’m passionate about sustainable gardening practices that support both the health of my garden and the environment as a whole. If you enjoy this video, please give it a thumbs up and consider subscribing to my channel for more gardening tips and inspiration!
A brief history on this backyard:
I started by laying down tons of mulch and woodchips, collected hundreds of bags of leaves and spent a good chunk of change on plants/seeds over the last 3 years. In this series of unedited, raw footage, I’ll have an opportunity to showcase my hard work. This permaculture style food forest began March 2020. I am now entering my 4th year into this project, and I’m excited to see how well things perform this year. I appreciate you taking the time to read this message.
