**Edible landscaping: If you're going to landscape your property with plants, shrubs, and trees, why not use those that will provide you and your family with healthy food? **Grow your very own food forest! If you're not familiar with the food forest concept, there are many useful video resources on YouTube the can be found simply using the search term "food forest". Are you big on ambition, but short on space? A highly recommended YouTube channel is "The Gardening Channel with James Prigioni". On his channel, James produces excellent content and demonstrates how an abundance of food can be grown on just a one-ninth acre suburban backyard using food forest principles. Products found at The Berry Booth represent the understory, the shrub layer, the herbaceous layer, the root layer, the ground cover layer, and the vine layer; all the layers of a healthy food forest, except the overstory layer. **Most importantly, have more control over where your food comes from and ensure it's grown using healthy practices, all while loosening Big Ag's grip on our food supply.
This plant produces abundant quantities of absolutely delicious berries. Very little can beat treating yourself to a handful-to-mouthful of these tasty little morsels on an early summers day.
Like most other currants, the Pink Champaign prefers well-drained soil. Will tolerate partial shade, but the more sun it gets, the more berries it will produce. Extremely hardy down to USDA zone 3. Bushes will reach 3 - 5 feet and maturity.
