Episode-1258- Food Forest Questions and Answers – Part Two




The Survival Podcast show

Summary: TweetTwo weeks ago I did a show called Food Forestry and How it Actually Works.  In that show I asked for specific food forest questions.  The response was so heavy that a week ago I did Episode-1251- Food Forest Questions and Answers – Part One and wasn’t able to cover all the questions by a long shot.  So today we have part two. If you didn’t listen to the first two shows, you might want to do so before listening to this show. The reason being is that this show is a direct result of questions that I asked the audience to send me at the end of the first show and the answers given on the second one. Hence much of what was covered there I will be assuming you have already heard today. The reality is a food forest is both simple and quite complex at the same time. The complexity is based on the system that develops, the massive numbers of interrelationships and the fungal networks, guilds, etc that are formed. Join Me Today As I Answer Your Questions Including… What is the human element in maintaining and established forest When, where and how do animals fit into forest establishment and management How can you tweak guilds and add species after establishment Top support trees for temperate climates Using so called “invasive species” in permaculture Guiding with trees like black walnut and pecan that are alleopathic Where to plant support trees and how far to space them The Judas tree as a support tree What is “texture in a landscape” Resources for today’s show… The Year 1258 Join Our Forum 13Skills.com Join Our Forum Walking To Freedom Get TSP Copper Sentinels TSP Gear PermaEthos.com Western Botanicals – (sponsor of the day) Knife Kits – (sponsor of the day) Where you can get “Wisconsin Pecans” Plants that do Well with Black Walnut and other juglone producers The Judas Tree – Similar to Eastern Red Bud but it fixes nitrogen.
