A food forest differs from vegetable gardens in that it is multi-layered, with upper canopy fruit and nut trees, understory edible shrubs, and perennial ground layers of herbs, vegetables and flowers.
Edible forest gardening combines plants that are mutually beneficial, creating a garden ecosystem that is more than the sum of its parts, useful to both people and wildlife and largely self-maintaining.
A beautiful, functional, biologically diverse hedgerow. Hedgerows is an old English term that refers to narrow planting strips that grow along field borders, fence lines and waterways.
Decompose your lawn naturally, organically by sheet mulching. Sheet composting is the technique of laying organic material on top of the soil allowing it to decompose naturally as it does on the forest floor, activating the soil with healthy microbial life.
