Very good idea

Hi little buddies!

how are you?, well, I hope you're fine.
Today I feel very glad cause' I found an interesting topic about ecosystem management, I'm talking about permaculture.

Permaculture is like a philosophy about living in a sustainable system integrating in harmonic way the human society with nature, preventing or reducing the harm over natural systems.

One of most important topics of permaculture are the Food forests.


In brief, Food forests are an ecosystem of food plants (like apple trees, lemon trees, etc.) that grow up togheter, forming a stable system like little forests, in this way, we can cultivate different types of food without damage the soil cause' the forest is bringinig natural nutrients to the soil in a constant way, without adding toxic things like pesticides or industrial fertilizers.

I think that is a nice way of reducing the pollution and protect the environment, besides, in my opinion food forests looks more beautiful than a monoculture ;)

Also I think that this idea is perfectly applicable to Chile, if and when, food forests being adapted to the climatic conditions of the country, I mean, the food plants for the forests have to be plants that can survive in the natural systems of Chile.

I really want that the idea of food forests being applied for more people in Chile, indeed, I try to make my own food forest, so, I hope it is going well. :D

see you in the next one!
