It's been said that adding a bit of potato to beans decreases the incidence
of "wind" (fart!). Maybe that would work with sunchokes. If bacteria in our
guts digest inulin, who is digesting them? There must be some way to get
more energy out of them, such as fermentation, other than cooking them
forever. Too many crops recommended by permaculturists require extra
cooking, which means more fossil fuel or wood use. This doesn't seem like a
good solution for a staple food.

Here's a great idea from Australia:

On Sunday the 13th of April, SustainaBundy will host their first ever
Permablitz as members and supporters work together to help transform
a Bundaberg back yard into an oasis of sustainability with a food
forest, chickens and a worm farm! The permablitz concept originated
with permaculture designer Dan Palmer in Melbourne - it's the
permaculture version of a Backyard Blitz. Read more about
permablitzes here
