    In Kerala, India, we grow our garden this way only, with coconut trees as the base integrating mango tree, jackfruit trees, banana, tapioca, elephant yam, chilli and what not. We didn’t knew, people outside India calls it agroforestry and celebrate this greatly.

    Like your suggestions and I think I did plan at least in my head, but not so much on paper. I find it is better to gradually grow the garden and to go with the flow. Yes think about what you want from the garden, whether you are a clean (OCD) type or a more natural (messy) Gardener (I am the latter) and then just start with one corner of the garden and expand. I put all my Citrus trees in at first, mainly because I bought them over the years and carried them from place to place in pots. One Cumquat is 20 years old. :) So yes maybe there was a plan for a long time.

    Hey there this is very helpful! I’m going to be starting a food forest in upstate NY this spring with climax trees of nuts and stone fruits as the orchard. The 2 acres is covered in grasses and some other shrubs. Can I ask? Should I just mulch the whole ground and begin sowing the seeds of the variety’s I’m looking to grow? It’s this first step that I’m unsure of right now. Thank you 🙏
