Native Plants / Food Forest

Flora that is indigenous in the region, sometimes called old growth, heirloom or indigenous species. Native species requires less water and care than exotic imports, and usually attract more birds, bees and butterflies, and help the cycle of life stay in balance. You can indicate a master gardener, permaculturalist or horticulturalist or information center with this icon, as they can help everyone identify and care for the native plants. Rich with biodiversity, food forests are 'wilder' than orchards.

I'm not a member but I am welcome to join the weekly potluck, which is a wonderful tradition! So many people are fed by this prolific garden. It's kind to all, including many recent newcomers seeking refuge from the shelter system. I especially like the family-oriented design and policies, and have heard that school groups have plots there too. With fruit trees planted across the street and rows and rows and rows of veggies, this garden has it all!
