VIDEO: Backyard Permaculture FOOD FOREST, Functional Design


The Permaculture Food Forest is still in high production, and the past investments are starting to pay off. I have been harvesting so much food that its hard to keep up with. I am located in New Jersey in Zone 6B

Thanks for the kind words and support 😁🐕❤️

  1. Fantastic plantation.! My understanding is that you do not use any sort of fertilizer. That you let the woodchips and other vegetation degrade into the soil, but presumably, it'll eventually become depleted, no.?.. So what do you do to maintain enough nutrients for young perennials and seasonal plants like tomatoes, etc.? Or do you pile on more chips.? Have to assume you have a large compost pile.? Do you grow enough to satisfy your needs.? Sorry about all the ????'s I'm an aspiring farmer with no experience whatsoever. I love what you've done and want to emulate the effort… Thanks.

  2. Hey James, I’m looking for some good foundational information on design of a food forest. I know nothing is set in stone and different climates have different designs. Really just looking for the basics of plant spacing organization and ratios(Perennial-annual, trees-shrubs-vines) when first starting out. Thanks

  3. Hi James I just knew you was going to eat the pear! Lol I want to ask your advice on how I can start a garden like yours on my property. My land is hardwood forest and I have cleared about a acre to build a cabin. My problem is its all river rock! Every were I step its a rock in all shapes and sizes. How would I even begin? Thank you so much!

  4. You’re a breath of fresh air. My 30 year old son thought I was going crazy when I had wood chips brought to my house. But after he tasted the fresh vegetables he’s on board!

  5. Really love your food forest! Very inspirational.. I think the reason your apple tree is not doing so well is because you grew it from seeds. I think you can graft some branches & get better / different apples.

  6. Hi James I was wondering if the chickens would eat tradescantia weed ? We have an area we want to prepare for a food forest but there is a lot of wondering Willy growing.

  7. Hey James, I’ve had my eye on your videos and there’s a plant I’ve been wanting to know the name of for a while.
    It is dead center in the front at 0:53. Is that dill?

  8. James Just a FYI, I heard on an orchard podcast that mulching with Willow wood chips can help reduce scab and ceder rust. The trees in the trial had 60 percent less damage to disease than those not mulched with Willow.

  9. so much more concise about the food. thanks. Lee
    PS Do you think it's best to take your new plants out of the containers as early as possible? Why were those new plants kept in pots so long? Conditioning? Climatizing? Acclimating?

  10. I'm super interested in doing something like this in my back yard. I have about half an acre to work with, in North Louisiana. But I'm not sure what to start with first. I did my first garden this year which is a 50 x 20 garden and it is pumping out some produce. Do you have to replant all of those plants each year or do they come back naturally?
