Anyone here have some woodland and use it for growing food crops (mix of fruit trees, nut trees, root vegetables, berries and mushrooms?) This is something I've been thinking about trying for a while. Or maybe converting pasture land to more mixed purpose?
I realise it's not something you can scale or automate easily, but I'm not really looking for that. Just a few hectares for personal use. I understand it will take many years for the trees to grow
- vram22 6y agoCheck out permaculture, food forests and Geoff Lawton videos (he covers both, and food forests are a subset of permaculture). He is a permaculture boss who learned from Bill Mollison, father of permaculture. Check (his) Zaytuna Farm video tour parts 1 and 2. Australia is big on permaculture but many other countries' people are doing it too. Huw Richards (Wales, UK), Maddy and Tim Harland (UK), Krishna McKenzie (Auroville, Tamil Nadu, India), Pete Kanaris (Florida, USA), Richard Perkins (Sweden) are just a few. All those named have YouTube videos.
