Episode 7: How to Help a Food Forest Recover


Listen Later

How do you help your garden or food forest after a natural disaster? Regardless of where you live, increasing weather extremes can have a massive impact on the food forest and home garden.  If you are in the cooler climates, the harder (and dry) winter months can wreak havoc on your fruit trees.  In the coastal regions, hurricanes can leave us in panic mode before or after the storm hits.  And nation-wide, hail, drought, or tornado threats can cause unnecessary stress. 


This podcast gives practical and strategic ways to help your food forest and garden recover when you experience any of these external stressors.  We'll talk about how to strengthen the root systems naturally, the best ways to cover the soil, how and when to prune a fruit tree.  We will specifically talk about how to help plants recover from a deep freeze, and give several more practical tips to boost your food forest and improve the recovery process.
