Transforming neglected land into a thriving, self-sustaining food forest during lockdown
In short: This video documents how an unused plot in Mid-West Wales was converted into a productive kitchen garden and permaculture food forest. It highlights the potential for home-grown abundance and the effort required to supply a family with a significant portion of their vegetable needs.
The project, led by Llyr, focuses on two main areas: turning a vacant piece of land into a high-yield kitchen garden and transitioning an existing orchard into a functional permaculture food forest. This transformation took place throughout the lockdown period.
By applying permaculture principles, the site now provides a substantial amount of the family's vegetable requirements. The work serves as a practical example of how dedicated land management can create a resilient, edible landscape.
