Product Description

In 1994 Martin Crawford started to plant a forest garden on a two-acre site on the Dartington estate in south Devon, and it is now largely mature. In this DVD he explains the principles of forest gardening, which is a kind of agroforestry. Forest gardens: are largely self-sustaining, containing a large number of very diverse species; provide a wide variety of fruits, nuts, edible leaves, medicinal plants and fibres; are self-fertilising by the use of specific plants which supply nutrients; use a large number of perennial crops, and are highly productive in terms of land use. The DVD was filmed over a ten-month period to show the forest garden in all seasons of the year.
