It would be really good to have an experienced food plant 
horticulturist in each group or at least region to put things 
straight. Some things can be cleared up by checking within the group 
or on this list, -
but for many questions it would be really helpful for the success of 
your plantings if not permaculture in your area, to have that 
horticulturalist.
