Planting a Food Forest: An introduction to creating an edible landscape
Date: February 25, 2023
Time: 10:00 am - 11:30 am
Want to garden and do your part for wildlife and climate change? Consider creating a food forest! A food forest is built with diverse edible plants in forest layers. It is maintained without annual soil turnover and plant replacement of traditional food gardens. This approach, long practiced by Indigenous peoples around the world, is a sustainable, low-maintenance strategy that provides homes for beneficial insects and local wildlife, along with food for you and your community.
