Woodland Garden
Welcome to our woodland garden! We are lucky enough to have about 3.5 acres of wooded land on our property. Right now this area is mostly just where we play and where the deer live. But we have grand plans! Keep reading!
What is a Woodland Garden?
Woodland gardens are areas of wooded land that is used to grow foods, medicinal plants, and provide resources to the owner. Many plants grow quite well in the cool, shady woods.
Our Woodland Garden Design Plan:
You can see the full scope of our property here (with the woodland garden labeled).
Here are some of our plans for this space:
- Growing mushrooms
- Additional rainwater collection as it overflows from the pond
- Play spaces and hideouts for the kids
- Foraging
- Shade-loving edibles and medicinals
- Use for wood gathering
