Fisrt, plant the things that take the longest to reach maturity. Three apple trees of three different varieties. Two cherry trees and two peach trees. Raspberry bushes, asparagus, rhubarb...
Distribute seed on the pasture to get the cow salad bar going.
Plant chicken and cow food for the winter seasons (corn, soybeans, wheat). Alfalfa for cows and hay for bedding?
Even free-ranging chickens need supplemental food. High protein feed, grains (corn, soybeans or wheat) and oyster-shell calcium. Non-frozen water year round.
Next comes the people food; tomatoes and things that can be canned. Zuchini, squashes, pumpkins, green peppers, peas, beans, onions, carrots, Jerusalem artichokes, sunflowers, (sesame?)
