Inspired by Robert Hart's forest garden at Wenlock Edge in Shropshire, tranquil and abundant edible landscapes are now springing up throughout our towns and cities.
Unfortunately the original soundtrack to this film by Pink n Ruby became corrupted, so I've had to use a 'new age' tune supplied by Youtube, but hopefully its still an enjoyable film...

  • I don't have the space to fly a kite but i do have space for a small forest garden... My garden is tiny but I've managed to fit in a few apple trees on dwarfing root stocks as well as various fruit bushes and perennial vegetables and edible leaves. Re this film, one of the forest gardens is on a standard sized allotment, which most city people would have access to, the other 2 are community projects, one being a nursery school in North London, the other a community garden in south London.

  • Great video - was it a cat purring - or some kind of strimmer?

  • Its a sample of their cat purring - tried to paste in a link to PinknRubies website but somehow it seems Youtube won't allow it. Do a Goggle search for more info!

  • This song is great!!!

    who is the artist?

  • its PinknRuby, from their album 'Garden' (song used with permission, both band memebers are working towards their diploma in Permaculture)

  • bliss! inspirational.

  • I have a 4 pole allotment in west london but have not had the time or money to do more than clear the rubbish and get it mostly level. I would like to establish a forest garden but need help designing and finding plants on a tight budget. Any suggestions?

  • @themightyscythe - there are plenty of more explanatory videos out there, eg, Martin Crawford, Geoff lawton, the old Robert Hart film that is now available on youtube, I just set out to capture a bit of the magic of some urban forest gardens I know of (including my own) rather than produce a 'how to' documentary

  • Beautiful!!
