"The agricultural revolution is one of the most controversial events in history.

and sprinted towards greed and alienation.
Whichever direction the road led, there was no going back"

Bunyonyi Food Forest Design
|
A Food Forest model was chosen as the foundation for BFFF to promote plant and biological diversity and nature relations. Without depending on costly, fossil fuel-based inputs such as chemical fertilizers, fuel-powered machinery, or pesticides, the diversified food crops and varied production cycles provide a substantial portion of nutritive and energy requirements of the local diet and ensures continuous health and prosperity throughout the year.
Food Forest Manual The design model and implementation for Bunyonyi Food Forest is guided by this informative and detailed Technical Manual (developed by Teams for the Future.org). |
