Urban Forest Gardens

Explore how forest garden principles can transform urban spaces into productive, layered and biodiverse landscapes. Can we grow food in the way a natural woodland grows? This one-day course explores the principles of forest gardening and considers how they can be adapted for urban gardens, community spaces and smaller city landscapes. We will examine how the different layers interact, how plants can be selected for multiple functions and how forest garden principles can be adapted to suit the constraints of urban environments.
