A couple more to add to the list of perennial vegetables: Jerusalem Artichokes (actually a type of sunflower) and Perennial Kale. Also, I suspect that wild onion might be a perennial. If not- it must at least be self propogating. And I know that violets are edible, and they seem to come up every year without prompting in the Glebe.
Which reminds me
that another way to go is with self
seeding annuals. Since they seed themselves, they are also low maintenance.
I haven’t found too much information on this, but
this
article at least suggests that it might be possible to work something
out with tomatoes and squash.
And then there are berry and fruit trees.
