Zone 5 in Permaculture is the wilderness. There is little human intervention in zone 5 besides the observation of natural eco-systems, cycles and some foraging. Zone 5 is where we learn the most important lessons of the first Permaculture principle of working with nature, not against.
This is my FAVORITE spot to take a break and observe Zone 5. Or just take a nap in between running around on the farm.
Part of the view of Zone 5 from the hammock. Some times it is hard to believe that I get to look at that every day.
SOME THING I LIKE FORAGING OUT OF ZONE 5
Pawpaw
Turkey Tail Mushroom
Black Walnuts Hickory nuts
Muscadine Grape

Go out and explore you Zone 5. You'll be surprised what you may find and learn!!
