Edible Food Forest Design and Installation

Public Space

In the spring of 2015 a conversation began between Transition Framingham and Edwards Church Open Spirit (ECOS).

ECOS had the desire to bring the concept of Edible Forest Gardens to their campus.

Goals

The goal became to transform a marginal steeply sloped lawn into a garden that would give back.

With that aim we created a Massachusetts native plant based garden that produces food for humans and wildlife, provides food and habitat for pollinators, and passively harvests rainwater.

Reformation

This is a garden seeking to deepen the functions of under utilized landscapes.

A whole lot of love, community, and care has gone into making this garden a reality.

If you are interested in learning more of this garden’s creation, there are a host of videos below.
