At the Permaculture Sydney Institute of Australia we designed a food forest in collaboration with the director and owner of the land.

​

The creation of the food forest has many benefits to the environment as well as people:

• it will provide food for the inhabitants of the farm and the community and for the Valley’s next generations;

• it reduces greenhouse gas pollution and C02;

• it provides food, shelter corridors and habitat to animals and wildlife;

• it guarantees regeneration of the landscape, improving soil and carbon;

• it allows rehydration of the landscape, slowing water from running off site. 

​

As the design displays, trees are grouped into climatic and similar type: 

• deciduous fruit and nut trees (brown section on the plan);

• citrus (yellow trees on the plan);

• mediterranean section (the olive green trees on the plan);

• sub-tropical and tropical (the dark green on the plan).
