In this video, I go through the basics of a concept called #guild . It means a community of plants, that can also be found in nature, which we try to mimic here. The different elements are in harmony and benefit each other. They are very efficient in recycling energy, nutrients and water and can even become self-sufficient in some aspects.
In the first video I use a guild on our yard that has partly by itself formed around an oak as an example. In the next video we try to take what we have learned to practice.
