Agroforestry solutions – a bridge to a fossil fuel-free future

https://everydaygrit.com/agroforestry-solutions-a-bridge-to-a-fossil-fuel-free-future/

Agroforestry sounds technical, but it is very easy to understand. It simply means that farmers include trees, shrubs and livestock in the way that they farm. It’s a traditional form of farming practised throughout the world. And although the term was coined in the 1970s, the practice actually dates back thousands of years.

The Food Forest Farmers

Syntropic farming is a new and ancient regenerative agriculture practice that can be implemented in any region, in any climate, in limitless ways – even in your own back yard. For over a decade the Lotz-Keegan family have been implementing permaculture practices to regenerate a degraded hillside into an abundant food forest of native and exotic trees that feed their family, their community, the wildlife, the soil, and their souls.

Combining the practices of syntropic agroforestry with the principles of permaculture and their own deeply thoughtful approach to land regeneration, food growing, and lifestyle, this family is partnering with nature to create a humming diversity on the land and a positive story about the role of humans in an eco-system.

How Ancient Forest Gardens Are Keeping Hunger At Bay

https://newint.org/immersive/2021/01/06/sheltering-fjf-forest

Agroforesty has been passed down like this from generation to generation in Gedeo since Neolithic times, making it one of the oldest farming systems in the world. The system endures in an area with the highest rural population density in Ethiopia (1,300 people per kilometre squared), without degrading the land, while sustaining great diversity. A study from Gedeo’s Kochore district found 165 plant species within and around home gardens.
