Description of  Edible Forest Gardens (Vol. 2): Ecological Design And Practice For Temperate-Climate Permaculture

Volume Two of the two-volume set, Edible Forest Gardens, focuses all of its attention on effective design and practice.

It offers a unique 'pattern language' for forest garden design, and provides detailed advice for how to design, prepare the site for, plant, and maintain your forest garden. Volume Two also includes a unique Plant Species Matrix and several associated appendices which offer a wide-ranging catalog of the ecology, uses, and ecosystem functions of the best temperate-climate forest garden plants, and a few edible mushrooms, from around the world.
