Agroforestry

Agroforestry

Definition

A land use system that combines trees, crops, and/or animals on the same land to create productive, biodiverse, and sustainable ecosystems.

Interpretation

The return of the tree to the field. Agroforestry blends the vertical wisdom of forests with the horizontal needs of agriculture. It’s stacked abundance β€” resilience through layers, roots, and relationships.

Living Invitation

Look at your garden or nearest farmland β€” could a tree belong there? What could it offer in shade, shelter, soil, or fruit?
