Not a great start to the gardening season - broke my hip three weeks ago 😩 Slowly recovering but will be a while before I’m able to do anything other than sow seeds and pot on. Encouraging to see how well the forest garden areas are doing with only minimal intervention from my husband though. #forestgarden

Just made a donation to the incredibly useful Plants for a Future (https://pfaf.org/) plant database. If you've also found them useful and have a little spare cash, they're looking for financial assistance.

How to Create a Backyard #FoodForest with #Fruit & #NutTrees 🌳🥜🍎
Published by Ty Ty Plant Nursery, LLC, on
June 4, 2025"A backyard food forest is a #sustainable, low-maintenance #gardening method that mimics a natural #forest #ecosystem—except instead of wild plants, you’re growing delicious fruits, nuts, #herbs, and more. It’s a long-term investment in your health, your land, and your ability to grow your own nutrient-rich food without relying on chemicals or constant labor.
"Whether you have a sprawling #backyard or a small suburban plot, you can design your own food forest using fruit and nut trees as the foundation. Here’s how to get started.
🌿 What Is a Food Forest?
"A food forest (also called a #ForestGarden) is a multi-layered growing system that mirrors the structure of a natural forest. It includes:
- Canopy layer – Large fruit and nut trees (like pecans, walnuts, pears) [I WOULD USE CAUTION WITH WALNUTS! They can be poisonous to other plants!]
- Sub-canopy layer – Dwarf or semi-dwarf fruit trees (like plums, figs, or apples)
- Shrub layer – Berries and bush fruits (like raspberries, blueberries, elderberries)
- Herbaceous layer – Culinary and medicinal herbs (like mint, comfrey, lemon balm)
- Groundcover layer – Spreading, edible or soil-building plants (like strawberries or clover)
- Root layer – Underground crops (like garlic, onions, or horseradish)- Vertical/vine layer – Climbing plants (like grapes or kiwis)
"Together, these layers maximize space, diversify harvests, and support soil health and #biodiversity."

How #Indigenous #FoodSovereignty can improve #FoodSecurity
Sustainable Bites: Food and Our Future What can we do to help make our food systems more sustainable? UBC researchers share small steps that can make a big collective impact.
March 24, 2025
"Indigenous households experience food insecurity at rates two to three times higher than non-Indigenous households in Canada. #Agroecologist Dr. #JenniferGrenz, an Assistant Professor in the Faculty of Forestry and Faculty of Land and Food Systems, studies Indigenous food sovereignty and food systems, and how to revitalize them.
Did you know?
#Kwetlal, or #camas, a lily-like plant with a starchy bulb, was an important staple for #IndigenousPeoples along the #SalishSea.
Kwetlal was cultivated in Garry oak #ecosystems by #W̱SÁNEĆ and Quw’utsun Peoples, until #colonization nearly destroyed these unique food systems.What does Indigenous food sovereignty mean?
" 'Indigenous food sovereignty is the reclamation and revitalization of our food systems,' says Dr. Grenz, who is Nlaka’pamux of mixed ancestry, whose family comes from the #Lytton First Nation. She grew up and lives on the coast of BC.
"The lands across #BritishColumbia, Dr. Grenz explains, were purposefully shaped since time immemorial for foods, medicines and technologies by the Indigenous Peoples who lived there until colonial settlers dispossessed them of their lands, culture and traditions.
" 'Indigenous food sovereignty is also about #CulturalResurgence: being able to access those foods and medicines again and find new ones as we face a changing climate,' said Dr. Grenz. 'Heal the people, heal the land. Heal the land, heal the people. I think that’s really what food sovereignty is about.'
"Revitalizing Indigenous food systems can help diversify and localize food systems in ways that could buffer against #FoodInsecurity in a changing climate.
"Dr. Grenz’s research team is working alongside Indigenous communities impacted by the 2021 heat dome and wildfires to understand the effects on culturally important plants.
" 'If you think of land as just vegetation and an aesthetic notion of what belongs, you’re going to have very different approaches and different outcomes to recovery than if you see that land as a food system, not just for humans, but for our animal, bird, fish and insect relations,' says Dr. Grenz. 'We’re working alongside communities to develop those Indigenized processes around wildfire recovery that honour Indigenous food systems, sustainability and resiliency.”'
How can #Settlers support the revitalization of Indigenous food systems?"Learn about the histories of the lands you live on and what the traditional food systems were, what they are now and what they could be, says Dr. Grenz.
"Incorporating reciprocity into your relationship with the land is also important. 'Learn about the plants of those lands and find a way to invite them into your life. How can you take care of them, nurture them and steward them?' asks Dr. Grenz.
"One way might be to Indigenize your own back yard or community garden. Or learn about Indigenous food system protocols and the concept of '#HonourableHarvest.'
How can land-based learning support Indigenous food sovereignty?"Land-based learning is an opportunity to get students and people out on the land—and start taking steps to give back while they are learning.
"At #UBCFarm, Dr. Grenz and students are starting two different Indigenous food systems to work as part of the agrarian food system that exists there — 'essentially bridging two food systems, #decolonizing and #Indigenizing our understandings of what foods are and how those two systems work together to benefit both.'
"In one, they are establishing a Garry oak ecosystem and growing camas, which is a traditional food system of the W̱SÁNEĆ and Quw’utsun Peoples. Another type of #ForestGarden, similar to other Coast #Salish, #Tsimshian or #Haida food systems, will see the forest shaped by different plants like beaked #hazelnut, #elderberry, #salmonberry and #thimbleberry.The students will be able to practice how to care for plants ordinarily thought of as forest plants, and 'learn how to reclaim traditional #LandStewardship practices to actually increase the production of those berries.' "

Peut-on rendre la forêt « nourricière » ? La proposition du jardin-forêt
Issu des régions tropicales, le jardin-forêt est un modèle d’agroforesterie qui séduit de plus en plus en Europe pour prendre le contrepied d’un modèle agricole à bout de souffle. Il semble peu envisageable qu’il se substitue à l’agriculture productiviste dominante, mais il ouvre des pistes inspirantes pour promouvoir des pratiques plus respectueuses du vivant.Par Jacques Tassin, Cirad et Michon Geneviève, Institut de recherche pour le développement (IRD)

Save the #DartingtonForestGarden
This page is dedicated to our fight against our landlord’s (#DartingtonHallTrust) decision to evict us from our 31-year-old #ForestGarden in #Dartington, #DevonUK. Here you’ll find latest updates and press releases, and also your tributes to the forest garden and what it means to you, and why it should be preserved.
Update Sun 16 March 2025
"Morning to all our wonderful supporters!
"The petition to save our forest garden has gathered over 7,500 signatures in two days which is AMAZING.
"I think our landlords DHT may have been surprised and shocked both by the level of support and by the passion shown, so thank you all again.
"Before we went public, we did in fact write to CEO Robert Fedder at DHT a week ago, explaining why the forest garden was such an important resource, and asking them to retract their notice to quit. We also told him that there would be considerable public support and inevitable bad PR for them. Clearly DHT didn’t want a sensible dialogue at that time ….
"Our focus now is persuading DHT to sell the forest garden site to us. We know there are supporters out there itching to get crowdfunding so anyone with good experience of this please get in touch – we may need you!
"We heard a report that someone shouted abuse at Dartington staff yesterday. Please don’t. DHT front line staff are not responsible for DHT decisions.
"We are so touched by all the messages of support, this really means a lot so thanks again everyone."

Last week I was a guest on my favourite #gardening #podcast talking about #ForestGarden & #WoodMeadow and the #ClimatEmergency & #NatureEmergency.
Talking about #GardenDesign & leaving options open for future scenarios (responsive garden design I call it), I actually managed to namecheck my favourite web designer @beep
He's proper inspirational & the reason how I came across the 2 seminal books How Buildings Learn & The Real World of Technology. Thank you Ethan 🙏

Another drone experiment, today at the #Clifftop garden in Ceredigion. Low, bright, early morning sun, the shadows are too harsh for much detail. I shall return on a cloudy lunchtime with diffuse light. The clients are lovely, so passionate about #gardening
