  1. Any forest experts on here? I'm trying to turn my backyard forest into a healthy oak-hickory food forest and while I know what I need to get rid of (buckthorn, honeysuckle, creeping bellflower) I don't really know what the understory is *supposed* to look like.

    Where should the shrubs/small trees be in relation to the big ones? What should go at the edges vs in the middle? Most of the info I've found by googling is geared toward managing a forest for logging which is obvs not helpful.

    Thanks in advance!
