Hi Kathy,
Books are good.
You say your yard is mostly shade - what from?
Grow more fruit / nut bearing trees, shift the focus from annuals
to perennials. Replace non-edible shade-producing trees with
edible species. Trees are less maintenance, hardier to vagaries of
weather, and provide higher yield.
Find some recipes for chipmunks.
Optimise your land and planting cycles for sun / water reception
and retention. This is a non-trivial task, verily, but much Fun.
Jedd.
