Food forest design , consulting and implementation
Food forest design trajectory
-
Do you have a dream for a food forest?
-
Not sure where to start?
-
Do you need a clear master plan and/or detailed planting plan?
-
Need support in channeling your wishes and desires?
-
Are you looking for extra content and inspiration?
Within the Food Forest Design Traject we work systematically from a sketch to a master plan, planting plan and phasing plan .
With these plans in hand, you can create your food forest over a period of several years.
​
A Food Forest Design process takes place over several contact days, with time in between for reflection and observation.
Experience shows that spreading the design over time makes the final design stronger.
A food forest is a system that requires a close relationship with the manager of the system, so it is an added value to be strongly involved from the start.
I am happy to share all my experience and knowledge throughout the process.
​
Roughly speaking, the food forest design process looks like this:
​
-
Field observation, field inventory, site analysis and inventory of dreams, desires, goals.
-
Intentional moment (optional)
-
Determining the character of a food forest in terms of goals and dreams
-
Sketch phase
-
Master plan
-
Planting plan
-
Phasing plan towards construction
-
Advice on legislation
