Goji berries, or wolf berries, are native to China but have recently garnered a lot of attention in the international superfood circles. They have highly nutritious berries with a wallop of antioxidants to fight cancer, as well as high levels of amino acids. Generally, the berries are consumed dried. Goji leaves are also delicious and nutritious, and they can be eaten raw (on the bitter side) or cooked in a broth or a stir-fry. Goji berries are easy to grow and can even work in containers. The plants prefer a more alkaline soil, and left to their own devices will readily spread, via roots, over an area. They can be trained on a trellis or grown as shrubs. Young plants like moist soil, but once established, they are drought-tolerant. — Permaculture News
