Hey Guys,
I really enjoyed my time in Australia and I found the BYAP very good, so I went onto the BYF forum as well, to see how I can learn and help.
A little about me:
I am from Germany and I just love gardening, as I consider what backyard farming is, as it doesn't have the destructional undertone as agriculture has.
(Don't get me wrong I am a farmer myself and I own about 600ha of prime agricultural land in Germany.)
I am 25 and male, so that's it.
I have to do my masters degree (agriculture) so I have my father in charge of the farm again, and maintain only a small experimental garden (no aquaponic either):

There are
one Capsicum annum (the big one) Spanish pepper
two Capsicum baccatum (smaller ones) Peruan pepper
nine Phoenix dactylifera date palm (for fun)
(The rose is not yet identified.)
I will plant four coffee trees, some melons, bananas and olive trees as well. (I like to go exotic! :-))
Our normal garden, which is just a flower garden would look like this (look down), as we haven't had much time this year to get the veggie garden going.
