Backyard Forest Garden Course

Whatever the size of your garden, you can create a lush food forest using forest garden techniques. Step-by-step, you’ll learn how to work with nature to grow edible crops, all the while creating a haven for wildlife.

The course is divided into 3 stages:

1. Observe & plan
Where you observe, measure and document your garden to start the planning process, then on to create the map to enable the design process.

2. Structural planting
Establish the windbreaks & protective structures, start a productive perennial veg bed and plant the canopy tree layer.

3. Fill in the structure
Prepare the ground so that you can plant the shrubs and the ground cover.

A forest garden emulates the edge of woodland, working with nature to reduce the amount of watering and maintenance, with a permanent living ground cover and a self-sustaining ecosystem of nutrients & pest control. Mostly perennial plants are used, in all three dimensions, as they are more resilient, lower maintenance and more nutritious.
