Forest Garden

A forest garden is an agricultural system designed to mimic the structure and diversity of a natural forest. It involves planting a variety of trees, shrubs, herbs, and ground cover plants that coexist to create a self-sustaining ecosystem. This arrangement enhances biodiversity, improves soil health, and reduces the need for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Forest gardens can provide food, medicine, and habitat for wildlife while promoting sustainable land use. They are particularly suited for smaller spaces, enabling efficient use of resources and fostering resilience against pests and diseases.
