Plus you should be palisading anyhow, just to keep your little budding town safe until you can get brick walls.
Once you start getting a bit of exploration and perception, and get your learning ability up, foraging can be real nice for LP starting out. If you can't raise your perception yet, you'll need 6 Exploration just to start seeing the Wild Windsown Weeds, but you'll need around 4 times that to see *all* of them. But still, foraging blueberries, stinging nettles and spindly taproots at full change can give you over 100 LP a pop, so that's not bad starting out.
And yeah, I'd be wary of making houses "just because" until you get set up and see what land you want to use for other things. Build storage to go *in* the houses first.
