About 3 years ago I was out walking the lower La Platta River. I took some onions seeds with me. The river was down to a trickle and as I went, I would drop and stomp a few seeds.
Yesterday evening, I took the boys out for a walk and low and behold some of the seeds must have taken. We made digging sticks and dug up about a dozen onions and left the rest. The boys want to do pumpkins and water Mellon's next weekend. I wonder how Pinto Beans would do?
Good soil, water and it is a flood plane, so no one will build there. Free land for planting a few survival groceries. Just far enough away from everything that no one (But me) goes down there. Over grown with sage brush and scrub oak. You have to walk down the river bed to get where the planting would be unseen. But there is several miles of protected land.
Ideas Guys! I need ideas. What would you plant?
