Made a Handy Tool for People To Use. A Massive Database that lets you view loads of different perennial plants, sort by food forest layer and view their USDA zones.

Here’s the Link to the Google Sheets.

The Idea is pretty simple, I put in a load of different perennial plants all organized by the 9 different food forest layers. For each layer sheet there’s the name of the plant, it’s scientific name to avoid confusion, a link to how to grow it and most importantly a chart showing all the different usda zones the plant will grow in.

Feel free to save a copy, or comment if you find something inaccurate / want to add something.

I hope this helps a few people out with their projects. Since researching it I’ve found loads of things I want to add to my own community gardens.
