Hide abundance in plain sight like a gardening ninja. Blueberries, chard, lavender, thyme are beautiful and bountiful. You spend time, money, and effort caring for your yard. We will help you get something in return. From kitchen herb garden to food forest and everything in-between, we can help you eat the world around you.
A food forest is a vibrant oasis brimming with edible treasures, where nature's bounty meets human ingenuity. This multi-layered, sustainable garden mimics a natural forest ecosystem but is stocked with fruit and nut trees, shrubs, vines, and perennial vegetables. Together, these plants create a self-sustaining habitat that thrives without the need for artificial inputs, providing a rich diversity of produce. It's a living larder, where every leaf, root, and branch offers a feast for the senses, fostering biodiversity and nourishing both body and soul. In this edible paradise, the lines between wild and cultivated blur, offering a harmonious model for the future of food cultivation.
Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a budding enthusiast, transform your garden into a sanctuary of peace and flavor with our custom tea garden designs. From the aromatic lavender to the robust Camellia sinensis, let each sip of tea be a tribute to your personal oasis. A space where beauty meets utility, and every plant tells a story of culture, history, and flavor.

Your yard already takes energy and resources, why not let it give back? If you need a bush, plant a blueberry. If you need a shrub, plant an elderberry. Need a groundcover? Try strawberries or sweet potatoes. And please, for the love of Nature, replace that Bradford pear with a persimmon. Edible landscaping hides food in plain sight; replacing your ornamental landscaping with productive and nourishing alternatives that are as beautiful to you and infinitely more attractive to birds and bees.
Also known as a forest garden, a food forest is a landscape inspired by natural forests, layering plants through space and time to create an abundant environment. 8 major layers include Canopy, Understory, Shrub, Vine, Herbaceous plants, Groundcover, Root, Fungi. After the trees are established, food forests take less maintenance and produce more bounty year over year.
An established food forest will almost certainly produce more than a family can eat in the given season. We offer resources for preserving your abundance to enjoy during the slower winter months and we host community canning parties. We won't sell you Tupperware but we'll definitely fill yours up.
Even with fridge and pantry packed and pickled to the brim, you may still be drowning in tomatoes and cukes. Your bounty can be a boon to other members of your community, so we ask that you donate your surplus to local food banks, shelters, or directly to those in need. We donate through The Bulb, a Charlotte-based non-profit committed to addressing food insecurity in vulnerable neighborhoods. Donating any surplus is included in our Forest Gardening maintenance plan.
Quick vegetables like radishes and lettuce can be ready in only a few weeks. Other vegetables like broccoli and squash thrive in the early phases of a food forest because of the intense sun. Berries produce in their first or second year. Harvest of some herbaceous perennials, like artichokes and asparagus, is best delayed to the second or third year. Expect 2-3 years for fruit trees, including grapes, to start producing or 3-7 years if grown from seed. Most nut trees take 5-7 years to start producing and will continue to produce nuts for up to 300 years! A pair of healthy pecans can feed 12 generations and shelter the 13th, supporting birds and bees and squirrels all the while. The al Badawi olive tree in Bethlehem and the olive tree of Vouves in Greece are still producing fruit today at 4,000 years old; not bad for a pair of quattuormillenarians.
