Food Forest

Food Forest

Definition

A diverse, multi-layered, self-sustaining edible ecosystem designed to mimic a natural forest.

Interpretation

The garden that gardens itself. Food forests are where permaculture becomes poetry โ€” stacking life vertically and seasonally, where fruits fall like gifts and shade brings fertility.

Living Invitation

Visit or sketch your dream food forest. What grows in the understory? What climbs? What feeds the soil?
