Ecological Food Forest
Ecological Food Forest was founded by author Amélie des Plantes. The inspiration for Ecological Food Forest came from Amélie’s passion for permaculture and her mission to share permaculture education with the world. What started with a beginners permaculture book has turned into a global permaculture community and a global movement towards a more sustainable and regenerative future. At Ecological Food Forest we are dedicated to providing you with accurate and up to date information.
