I have a half acre here, so that would be stretching it I think. I live in an area that has very tall trees (huge fir trees) so my property is pretty much ringed by some sort of tree. I have massive oak, maple and fir trees mostly. (lots of leaves right now!)

Open space is mostly planted but there is no way I have a quarter of an acre of food production. I'm impressed with their edict.
