Food forests designed by Eetbaar Landschap
Why Edible Landscapes?
Eetbaar landschap wants to transform as much cultural landscape as possible into biodiverse, edible and living places. Areas that nourish... – us as humans, the animals, the earth and future generations.
Places where we can once again enter into a creative relationship with our natural environment, and where we can build a valuable, ecological future together.
As a landscape designer I am happy to guide you from A (apple) to Z (Ziziphus) in the design and construction of your food forest. Whether it is a private garden, agricultural land, a communal area or a park – every landscape is unique.
I work with a human and professional approach, with a lot of attention for coordination and co-creation. In this way, we arrive together at a food forest that completely matches your wishes, needs and dreams.
What is a food forest?
A food forest is a designed ecosystem full of edible and useful plants — built in the image of a natural forest. By imitating the layering of a forest edge, a lively cultural landscape is created in which every species plays a role.
Trees, shrubs, perennials, climbers and root crops reinforce each other. This is how a system full of cooperation grows, which in the long term is largely self-sufficient.
A mature food forest is a place of abundance:
🌳 nuts, fruits, berries
🌿 herbs, salads, mushrooms
🌱 roots, tubers, medicinal plants
🔥 reef wood, firewood, paint plants
🍯 Honey, juices and more — all year round.
Why choose a food forest?
A food forest not only provides food, but also contributes to ecological recovery, biodiversity and climate resilience. It is a place of peace and meaning — for people, animals and soil.
