Shades of Johnny Appleseed, another great American gorilla gardener! By the post (GRD) great republican depression era, green front lawns, mimicking 17th century British lifestyles will have passed from American fancies, and great edible gardens will prevail. We will be working 4 day weeks at best and part-time and occasional work will be the norm. We will have the time, and the need for such change, and the bug free, GMO’ed faster, bigger “Americanized” garden veggies will reign. We will strive towards “Zero upkeep, Zero running cost, survival shelters and a large part of the population will remain in Shanties, built from materials stolen from the rows of now decaying and foreclosed McMansions. The GRD will have changed us in dramatic paradigm shifts greater than a direct nuclear hit could have done, and we will recoil from money-lenders and develop a self-sufficiency only know in the days of Walden Pond and Thoreau’s great works. The LED light will become our guiding light in a day where sustainability will reign. We will have no choice, the Chinese will “foreclose” on us, the Saudies and OPEC nations will realize how close they are to the bottom of the oil barrel, and become protectionist, We will ignore solar and wind power just long enough to miss the boat on perpetual energy sources, and have to fend for ourselves with our bare hands! The gorilla gardener will be likened to the village minstrel, bringing new seeds and plants wherever he goes, and spreading good will and good food along his way!

An edible landscape always looks better than some ugly ornamental landscapes. I always make disparaging remarks to my neighbors about their ornamental landscapes and make recommendations about using edible flowers, berry bushes, nut and fruit trees.
