Why edible?
41% of Melbourne's food currently comes from our food bowl. Projections for 2040 is 20% to feed 7 million which is not sustainable. An increase of 25% sustainable food production is the projection target to feed the world in 2050. (A Foodprint Melbourne report December 2015 article here)
Why wildlife gardens?
Sound conservation principles are vital design considerations. Creating environments comes with a responsibility to support life, many forms of life. Biodiversity mimics nature's biodiversity, which in turn creates resilient and robust systems. It is possible to support wildlife, have food and a beautiful outdoor space.
