Growing Food in the Forest

We travelled to Coombs to visit some friends who are working on an edible forest garden and we might just help them!  The dreams are in the early stages, this is before any work is done to the land.

Edible forest landscapes are life filled places that not only provide food for humans, they are habitats for wildlife, carbon sequestering, biodiversity, natural soil building gardens of fruit and nuts, perennial and annual veggies and flowers.  These many-layered gardens are beautiful, resilient and self-renewing. With the emphasis on the whole system as an interrelated organism, interconnectedness is the key to a healthy, dynamic garden. Let nature be the model we use to design landscape.
