I have a question, but as this post is a tad ancient (going by the date on the comment above mine), I realize I may not get an answer, but ahh well, I may as well try. How many olive trees do you think a person needs to be self sufficient in olives? Enough to eat, cook (olive oil) and make soap all year round plus whatever else you discover you can do with olives? Thanks! Hullo!

I personally like not wasting any space. First because it useful and second because it helps to keep the weeds down and out. I like disturbing the soil as little as possible. I once new a fellow who said he could feed a city from his garden. Just a little exaggeration. He buried his water lines about a food down, as I recall and put plastic over the top. He never weeded and the plants got all the water they wanted and went deep for it. Thanks for the great ideas. I like the idea of your spacing. I personally like not wasting any space.
