Inside the food forest revolution

Forest Gardens are a genius approach to tree planting where trees are mixed with fruits and vegetables to create a biodiversity paradise. It’s a natural solution to overcome poverty, drought and desertification.

In our ninth mission, we’re planting 40,000 trees to turn the barren land into these beautiful forest gardens.

I love how it's not just planting trees. it's teaching people a different way to make a living.

[jwessel]

It's good to see people actually helping to solve problems and not just talking about them.

This is how humans should be living. Less corporations, more diversity. Fresher foods, supporting local communities. Well done!

[jean-paulharrison]

This is how Jamaican small farmers have been doing it for decades I am glad that it is spreading to the world

This is my first mission, but I intend to stay forever. (This comment was just for the tree)

Great video Planet Wild and it was really great working with you. Plant a tree for me 🌲🌳🌴

Permaculture is definitely the answer for restoring the land and sustaining humanity. This should be a global focus.

[roshang.]

when she said “now for future generations we don’t have to struggle anymore because the trees have secured our lives” was so profound it brought tears to my eyes. this is so transformative in so many ways.

Biodiversity is the only way a forest can fully grow and support animal life, also a great way for self-sustaining

[shivdhameja]

I request everyone to plant atleast 10 different tree saplings on every special occasion or festival. It would be even great if we plant as many trees as possible in the start of monsoon

We own a small forest and this is how we farm. We work with the land, not clear cut the land. It's been exciting to learn this stuff.

[Laura-mkxl]

I love the resilience of food forests. The woman’s comment at the end, about how it is now a heirloom, that with the knowledge passed down, will thrive through many generations.

[deborahboos]

I am a permaculture practitioner myself and my small patch of land has been transformed with the help of trees interplanted with short crops. I always knew trees were the answer.
It is very encouraging to see the establishment of these food forests.
Congratulations to the NGO’s involved and all the farmers and communities involved in this amazing project.

This is amazing! Brining back biodiversity and helping people!

I find it funny that I used to ask my mom why her garden was wild when I was a child and now the things she taught me about the need for different plants is what is being discussed. I'm going to show her this video

[D_oktor]

I'm always amazed at how if trees planted properly, can transform the landscape for the better. More people need to see and know this!

[carboniferous_plants]

Planet Wild is my new favorite channel! It is so inspiring to see these conservation efforts making a difference ❤

[Will]

I'm looking to do this in my own country. I believe permaculture is the way to get rid of world hunger!
