In my small home nursery, I focus on less-common perennial vegetables, and other edible, medicinal, and pollinator plants.
I find all these plants to be excellent additions to the home-scale permaculture food and medicine forest.
Planned Plant Stock List for 2025:
Perennial Vegetables:
Hablitzia tamnoides - aka Caucasian Mountain Spinach
Walking onion
Delft perpetual leek
Nodding onion
Crosnes, aka Chinese Artichoke or Mint Root
Cut-leaf rudbeckia, aka Sochan
Skirret
Black Salsify
Lovage
Cardoon
Turkish Rocket
Hosta
Meadow Parsley
Medicinal Plants:
Black Elderberry
Elecampane
Comfrey
Echinacea
Mojito Mint
Chocolate Mint
Valerian
Lemon Balm
Goldenrod
Yarrow
Motherwort
Raspberry
Hops
Blue Vervain
Others:
Yellowhorn nut tree seedlings
Goji berry
Aronia berry
Phlomis
There will likely be many other plants available in this coming year, depending on how seed germination goes over the winter.
In 2025, in lieu of teas and tinctures, I’m going to be offering raw, dried herbs that I grow on site. I’d like to offer these with recipes and tips for herbal preparations. I still plan to offer salves and infused herbal oils (topical items).
Thank you for your support!
