  1. Growing #Indigenous #ForestGardens

    January 12, 2023, #UBC Forestry

    Excerpt: "Prior to #colonization, #IndigenousPeoples managed their lands extensively, placing certain plant species at various intensities in different locations to provide food and medicines on a broad scale, Jennifer explains. Forest soil was fertilized with fish bones, similar to how gardeners use fish emulsion to fertilize their backyard plants. Fire was used to conduct quick burns to open up the forest canopy, sweeten the soil (improve fertility) and remove dry woody debris that could ignite into a major blaze.

    "Many of these practices are being reclaimed and adapted in the modern context by Indigenous communities, says Jennifer, yet few are currently integrated into non-Indigenous-led, large- and small-scale forestry operations, despite their potential to improve #ClimateResiliency.

    "Indigenous #ForestGardening was developed and passed down over millennia, which accounts for the sophistication and ingenuity of #ForestGarden practices."

  11. "The Three Musketeers"

    Amelanchier species blossom. Otherwise known as saskatoon berry or juneberry.

    One of my favourites due to the interplay of light and shade on their creamy lanceolate petals. Never fails to dazzle.

  14. Interestingly, walnuts can be pollarded.

    I want edible perennials in the mix, and the book describes a rotational pollarding system to ensure the annuals get enough light. This might not be optimal for walnut harvesting though. Does anyone know how much harvest to expect from pollarded walnut trees over a nine year cycle?

    I tend to prefer the edible perennials over annuals longer term as the harvest is higher and significantly less work. Maybe just planting the trees 20m apart will enable centre rows of annuals to get decent sun even when they're mature. Although that would decrease annual rotation options. Ideas anyone?

  19. Preparing pots from last season's oops for planting last minute, late season Hail Mary, Please Gaia, maybe this will work. Emptied old dead plants with dry soil and leaves to protected spots in woods, where they would do well if herbs or dead elderberry decided to come back from some tiny spark of life, if there is any. Lined with straw partly composted over winter. Hollowed out center hole, filled with leftover potting soil from???? years ago? Planted a few Scarlet Runner Beans in each. 70 days for these. It is August 24. Hoping for long mild Autumn in coastal zone 6b, which might soon or already be turning into zone 7. Might need some row cover in October.

    1 pot each next to a post on either side of woodpile. One next to bird feeder hanger pole in rewilding Bird Park, part sunny patch with dappled light much of the day. Partly shady so it will be an experiment in forest gardening. How much sun do they actually need?

    Hoping they will at least grow tall enough to climb posts, and really hope they flower before frost kills them. I will be delighted if they flower; blossoms are beautiful red and white. I will be happy if they even grow at all. Actual beans would be wonderful, but it is an experiment. Will see what season extenders I can manage, and how weather behaves.

    Having to lay down on back now to post, as wiped out, and back between shoulder blades sore.

  23. The more I read about India's Kerala province, the more I want to go there. Anyone been there?

    "Here, rare and endemic species such as Impatiens jerdoniae, which are either endangered or fast disappearing in the wild, thrive. According to Joseph, more than 260 fern species exist in southern India, of which more than 200 are grown in the sanctuary. Similarly, 110 of the 140 species of Impatiens – a genus of more than 1,000 flowering plants – found in southern India are present at the sanctuary.

    While crop seed vaults are common around the world, nurseries for wild and native plants are rare, and many plant species quietly become extinct. This marks Gurukula out as a Noah’s ark for endangered plant species."

  27. #BookReview - First published in 1991, #ForestGardening is a pioneering guide to creating sustainable, low-maintenance ecosystems inspired by natural woodlands. It details designing vertical layers of fruit trees, perennial herbs, & vegetables that require minimal weeding or pest control. Hart offers practical advice & species recommendations for various climates.

    Agriculture is wrecking the planet and is the foundation of state societies. Forest based horticultures are a viable alternative.

  31. 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."
