Artikelbeschreibung des Verkäufers

The first in-depth guide for farmers and gardeners who have access to an established woodland and are looking for productive, innovative ways to create a natural forest ecosystems that produces a wide range of food, medicinals, and other non-timber products.

It is an invaluable practice to integrate into any farm or homestead, especially as the need for unique value-added products and supplemental income becomes more and more important for farmers. Farming the Woods covers in detail: How to cultivate, harvest, and market high-value non-timber forest cropsComprehensive information on historical perspectives of forest farmingHow to mimic the forest in a changing climateCultivation of medicinal cropsHow to create a forest nurseryHarvesting and utilizing wood productsThe role of animals in the forest farmHow to design and manage your forest farm once it?s set up Forest crops covered include: American ginsengShiitake mushroomsRamps (wild leeks)Maple syrupFruit and nut treesOrnamental fernsAnd many more! This book is a must-read for farmers and gardeners interested in incorporating aspects of agroforestry, permaculture, forest gardening, and sustainable woodlot management into the concept of a whole-farm organism.…
