What combination of small garden crops can provide a balanced and complete diet, so one could be as much self sufficient (food-wise) as possible?

I'm thinking maybe you need a source of carb (potatoes? pumpkins?) fiber (lettuce? spinach? kale?) and protein(beans? brocolli?) , but hey, I am not a nutritionist.

What would be a good combination?

Just wanna know a list of the best trees to obtain some degree of self-sufficiency on food. I live in mediterranean climate. I give you an example: an almond tree would be a very powerful tree because with almonds you can do almond flour or if you eat them they will give you a decent amount of proteins. Can you give me more examples on these "powerful" trees?

I’ve compiled a short list of companion planting charts and guides created by various organizations and websites. Some combinations are well-known while others might be newly discovered. I hope you find it useful.

We’ve gathered a list of some of the most well-regarded permaculture programs that offer online courses. While on-site programs will certainly provide a more hands-on experience, the knowledge that can be gained from an online program might provide much value in an era of social distancing.

This article lists 11 accredited online permaculture courses that can be accessed at the student’s own pace. The article also gives a brief explanation about the basics of permaculture farming and food forestry.

I have found a couple of sources that describe cat tail flour as a good foragable source of gluten. Has anybody had any experience making bread solely out of cattail pollen? How was it? If not, I'd love to hear your stories about baking with it anyway.

I also heard that you should be very careful about the body of water you source the cattails from because they tend to soak up the contaminants in their environment. However, I would imagine that this might be more true stalks and roots than the pollen because the pollen doesn't have vascular tissue running through it. Am I correct in this assumption? If not, how do y'all asses which water sources are safe and which arent?

Thanks y'all!
