Growing Pigeon Peas, An Incredibly Versatile Permaculture Plant. Pigeon pea would have to be one of the most versatile permaculture plants.
I started growing this legume shrub in my garden because it improves soil fertility by fixing atmospheric nitrogen. But I soon discovered that pigeon pea has many more uses: It's a staple food crop that provides good protein. You can use the green peas like fresh peas, and the dried peas like any other dried peas, beans or lentils. Growing Fruits and Fruit Trees. Growing fruits and fruit trees is my biggest passion in life.
I think the main reason is that I hate cooking so much. Fruit you can eat all day, just as it is, fresh, organic, yummy, juicy and bursting with flavour! There are only so many celery sticks and lettuce leaves that you can munch on in a day... (By the way, tomatoes and avocados are fruits...) Another reason I love growing tropical fruit is that you can grow so many fruits in the tropics. Aloha and Welcome to the HawaiiFruit.net.
