We Grew Food in the Worst Soil (Here’s What Actually Worked)

Ready to create your very own food forest? Check out: https://academy.goldifarms.com/course... For my free soil starter kit and more, visit: https://goldifarms.com Goldifarms is a 1300 sq ft (120 m²) suburban food forest in Zone 9a in California's interior foothills. We transformed a barren backyard into a productive, regenerative ecosystem using permaculture and syntropic agriculture principles. We designed Goldifarms to grow food, build soil, capture and store water, and support a diverse community of plants, insects, and wildlife. Here, I share the process of creating our food forest, including the challenges, lessons, and small shifts that make a big difference. The goal is to show what’s possible when we work with nature instead of against it, even in a small suburban space.
