    I mean, right now I’m shopping for a house with a decent sized property so I can grow a permaculture food forest to get fresh healthy veggies and fruit.

    20’ of lawn is like enough for two rows of fruit trees and berry bushes

      Yeah, but most people aren’t trying to grow a food forest. It’s unlikely you’re shopping for a city or suburbia house, either. You probably want more land a bit farther out.

      Also are you trying to grow fruit trees and food plants in your front yard? That’s mostly what I have a problem with. Back yards/gardens make more sense for stuff like growing food, decks, pools, etc.

      But why would you want that in front of the house and not behind?

        I’d prefer it over just a grass yard or being right up on a road having to listen to road sounds at all hours
