This Forest Garden is only a third of an acre, however when you walk through it you are surrounded by an abundance of diversity and food. The Forest Garden was created by Tim and Maddy Harland who founded Permaculture Magazine and have been observing the successes and failures since it was planted. I decided to travel to Hampshire in England to take a closer look and share what they are doing. I think this is a fantastic example that you really don’t need a huge amount of space for a beautiful paradise which not only provides productivity in food but also productivity for wildlife to thrive.

Fab except you have to be well off to afford the house and land first
Could someone link me to where to buy comfrey seeds for this large of a leaf?
Those purple flowers they put everywhere are a terrible nacious weed. Russian knap weed
Just found this, 2 years late lol! This couple are brilliant! Very good to camera, so informative and easy to watch. More please!
I have 2300sqft garden and want to make a little food forest. Whether that area is sufficient ?
Loved your video!! I have just started developing my forest garden, and being 60, I wished I had learnt about this 40 years ago!!! But never too late I think.
The Nepalese Sichuan Pepper he was talking about is called Timur pronounced Tee Moor. The bush is very thorny and the spice is very pungent. The plant is ideal for fencing.
Awesome video!
Excellent video, good quality, good info. Thanks for this post.
Any idea where this is? That's some pretty important information.
Good afternoon Tim & Maddy,
Amazing and very helpful, thank you for sharing and caring.

Afzaal

Great even I can HEAR what you are saying .

"It's just down to intuition and common sense to learn forest gardening."
Our species lost touch with our natural innate senses when these large corporate companies sold us convenience: low cost, low quality "food." It has slowly eroded our connection with mother nature and all of the other beings that inhabit it working cooperatively and symbiotically together with the earth.
Permaculture, Seed saving, Syntropic Farming, Community… this is the solution that was already there to begin with(Native Americans).
Nature is our true teacher, healer and Life giver!
I am inspired. I have my 1/3 acre and like that Nepalese pepper.
Brilliant people and forest garden, excellent problem solving, so well thought through, well done!
I loved how she said chickens love it and how she included insects being fad with fruit.
You should replicate this on a few acres
The only foraging I’ve ever done is for magic mushrooms, thought I’d branch out a little.
Hey, this is what we're doing on our third of an acre, but we're in the city. Can't wait until our property looks like this!
