@axeandroothomestead: A guild is a neighborhood of plants that surround a fruit or nut tree. This species-specific curated ecosystem works to repel unwanted insects and even disease, attract pollinators, suppress weeds, mulch the soil, pull up nutrients from deep within the soil’s layers, and fix nitrogen. All species require different guild members to successfully support them, just as in nature. In this video I’m sharing an in-depth explanation about how and why we implemented this practice that has been successfully used for centuries. We use sheet mulch to create square growing spaces, discuss foot traffic concerns, and placement of different plant species. #permaculture #permaculturelife #permaculturegarden #permacultureguild #polyculture #sustainable #sustainableliving #sustainablefarming #homegrown #gyo

So interesting! I’ve got some service berry trees near a large honey locust that aren’t thriving so I may add some guilds!
