@carolrmc good question! We will be planing over 100 trees in Braga/home; it will be a jungle! 🌳 🥝

We need to start by researching, designing & building our Green House: https://github.com/dwyl/home/issues/14 🍅 Then we need to select which types of trees we are going to attempt to grow from seed 🌱 and which ones we are going to buy from our local organic grower friends. 🎄

I estimate that we will buy around 30 3-5 year old fruit trees and and criss-cross graft them to form a "Baubotanic" https://github.com/dwyl/phase-two/issues/71 structure for the Greenhouse. 😍

Then we are going to surround the south-west periphery of the Braga garden with as many trees as we can realistically fit in order to create a "forest orchard". (around 40 trees)

The remaining 30 trees will be grown in custom/purpose-made Aquaponic Pots indoors! 😮

The Avocado Seedlings you have been nurturing on your veranda will be a very welcome addition! 🥑

We plan to dedicate a similar amount of land on the first terrace #116 to creating a food forest with as many species as possible. 🌱
