Project description
A 2 hectare food forest where the owner Beukel Hoet wants to benefit the community with healthy fruits and nuts.
Customers will pay a monthly fee, in exchange they will be able to pick whatever they want.
We designed this multistrata agroforestry system with optimal production in mind, having maximum respect for biodiversity, water infiltration and carbon storage at the same time.
With the Commensalist team, we also guided our client with the website and logo creation, social media presence and marketing strategy.

The food forest was planted in straight lines to ensure that maintenance is minimal.
There is already enough natural chaos within the rows to help biodiversity.
