In this episode, we explore the concept of edible ecosystems, focusing on three key sustainable gardening practices: food forests, fedges, and plant guilds. These systems mimic natural ecosystems, providing a multitude of benefits, from enhancing biodiversity and soil health to improving water conservation and climate resilience. We discuss the basics of designing and implementing these systems, including practical tips for starting in your own garden, and highlight the importance of these practices in creating sustainable, self-sufficient landscapes.
