Create Your Own Florida Food Forest: Florida Gardening Nature's Way

Imagine transforming your yard into a garden of Eden. Fruit trees sway overhead, berries and flowers burst forth from the shade, and alongside soft paths sweet potato vines intertwine with passionfruit and native wildflowers. Though the air, bees and butterflies buzz and flutter, spreading pollen and beauty in their cheerful wake.You can make this happen in a startlingly short period of time. You don't need to over-plan or over-think. Spacing isn't super important. You can start with seeds, cuttings or potted trees. You can even plant a decent food forest just by visiting your local international market and collecting seeds and roots to plant.Your limitation is your imagination. Florida wants to grow forests. Before development and clearing, our region was a verdant jungle - a land of lush foliage and beautiful flowers. We can create that flowering jungle again and tailor it to serve us by growing plants and trees that provide food, beauty, wildlife habitat, building materials and fuel.Create Your Own Florida Food Forest shares how you can make your Florida food forest dream a reality. In this vastly expanded and lavishly illustrated second edition of the original classic, Florida native David The Good gives you solid tried-and-true techniques for planning, planting and maintaining a food forest, along with extensive notes on useful species for your food forest design. Designed for gardeners from the tropical tip of Florida up into the temperate panhandle, Create Your Own Florida Food Forest is a must-have guide for anyone wishing to establish a permaculture food forest in the Sunshine State.
