2-Acre Tropical Food Forest Project: Start to Finish

What Your Permaculture Design Course Isn't Teaching You!
This 2-part series (Ft. Myers, FL) takes you through the entire process of establishing a food forest, from start to finish. We share with you how a paper design hits the ground & discuss the triumph, the trials & everything in between so you can apply the lessons we gain to your own permaculture farm or garden.
Be sure to come back for part 2, but in the meantime - be sure to check out our full "How to Create A Food Forest" Playlist. We have over 30 videos on projects of all different sizes & "how-to's" on just about anything you are seeking. You can find the playlist here - bit.ly/2ragmL2

How's the food forest here now? I like seeing things as you do them but I also like coming back a couple years later and seeing things when they're more established.

[@dianehammer7559]

This is my dream! I’m just south of Ft. Myers in Naples on 2.7 acres. I love watching all the homesteading channels but none of them I can totally relate to since our weather and what we can grow down here is so different! I’m so glad I found you!!

[@donnagarms8470]

I am loving all of this. And I have to say I was excited today when I saw the 2 acre project. Someday I hope to be able to buy some property and I would love to do this. I'm up north in PA so I would love to see you do something in a colder climate. Keep up the great work and thanks for teaching us so much. Loving you and your sweet family. Donna

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Donna Garms thank you! I’m hoping to feature some northern climate sites this summer.

[@chbalreddy6883]

🙏🙏

[@orlandogardener]

I'm very very grateful for this video it's inspiring and let's me know there's more people on the same page as me I've started to redo my yard 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Orlando Gardener thanks brother!👊

[@f1guremeout]

Very very inspired, from down here in Miami, FL. I aim to convert our backyard here into an organic garden/rec area. Thanks for making this video!

[@YogiTheDoggo]

Would love to see a follow up with this location now that is been almost 3 years

[@haly9245]

I love the introduction and the song so mucb. So inspirational!

[@mikek9297]

It is awesome ! Made me smile instantly !

[@ayina111]

well, I'm just like the owner, have tons of fruit trees in the planterbag 50-200 liters. The problem is I don't have enough land yet, so all the plant have to grow still in the pot for I don't know how long, but they still give me fruits. Thank you!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Hahah that’s a good problem! At least most of the up front costs will be gone.

[@anamtharamkunja5167]

I too just have two acre land got trained in parmaculture few weeks back and I am inspired by your video and I really what your doing. I went to college in Vermont U.S.A. ( Saint Michael's College and presently living in Southern part of India near Hyderabad....well made video and thanks for showing us so that we can try atleast 50 percent what you have done and Florada weather is suitable for all your plantation.

[@MatthewByrd]

Pete! The project looks great. You mentioned the irrigation going in the beds... have you ever done a video specifically about how you plan out irrigation? Thanks for your videos man! I'm just a few counties over trying to do the poor man's food forest in my back yard and these videos are great inspiration.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Matthew Byrd thank you! Yes it’s not very detailed but we did a video it can be found in the playlist description.

[@guineverependragon9804]

Wonderful! Would be super helpful to know what some of your "problems" were, here, as in when you talked about the trenching for irrigation. What's under that sand? And what are the roots of those large trees around the perimeter like? Sometimes when you create a plot full of nutritive soil, the trees nearby will just fill it in with their roots. Will look for a follow up to this.

[@RAYOFSONLITE]

The background sounds were minimal and not bad at all. Awsome work Pete, I am so glad that soneone has this goal for tbeir property and tbe mean, and of coasre you bringing it to fruition.

[@VAIREREVAHINE]

The trees seem to be planted so close to each other. Looking beautiful

[@jeff6899]

After some time enjoying your video's, Pete, it still does not get old in sharing how outstanding these are. Appreciate all the effort you put into these. :)

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Jeff it doesn’t get old reading your comments brother! Thanks for not getting bored with me 😉

[@leighannamarie3992]

Agree

[@scrqqge]

Was waiting for the finished project only to see at last minute theres a part 2!

[@SulcataGrove]

It’s great that you offer this service here. I’ve had several customers asking if we will plant our trees for them. I pass along your info :)

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Sulcata Grove it’s definitely a hike for us. These road jobs are challenging to say the least, I’m hoping more people get into the business. Thanks for spreading the word!

[@jennifiercools9866]

So glad to see what is doable in Fl, my husband and I are considering purchasing about 2-3 acres there and I really want to create a food forest and small homestead. All the videos I have found are everywhere but Fl. Thanks!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

No problem! We need more like minded people in Florida.

[@Ballberto11]

One of your best videos! The Intro Song Gets me pumped too go Plant the rest of my Fruit plants in my mini Food Forest....

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Balberto de la chiniguez thank you! Good luck with the food forest 🌳

[@reyn66]

What a gorgeous piece of property.

[@carralumsden8853]

Second time liking this video. This man did an amazing job of stepping up those plants. The end results is 2 💯❤ Thanks for sharing Peace

[@albertbeauchesne2882]

Stunningly beautiful with lots of potential.

[@Mrbfgray]

I get ideas, inspiration and learning on every Pete vid. :D

[@andresr.6363]

❄the white sand under the trees, looks like white snow ❄☺

[@johnwinnerd8511]

this seems like great size project to make a fruit tree and food garden oasis. Should take a couple years or so with the proper plan and hobby level project.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

da ne thanks! I’m be excited to see in a few months.

[@pixlbuny]

Just found you guys and I'm so grateful. I recently bought some acreage and I'm definitely going to give you guys a call soon!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Ally Miller thank you! We look forward to your call:)

[@vintagetrishgarden]

Great project thanks for taking us along. Loved the way you described your decisions-compost screening as budget conscious mulch solution and also retaining the grass in sections (managed organically but sustainable for the owner is so important). Grass sections give breathing space and access-very important permaculture design consideration.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

VintageTrish I always love your comments! ❤️

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

VintageTrish can I hire you for marketing? 😉

[@vintagetrishgarden]

Cushy job 😉 10 words… 'Watch what Pete and the Team DO in the videos'. Positive action sells itself. Example:A serious plant collector YT channel viewer asked GreenDreamsFL to do this install 🌸

[@chrisb1902]

You already had me with dirty heads! Already there it was a good video xD (Y) Dope project, keep it green! :-D

[@alodiaprie1]

So awesome… love the intro!😍

[@GraftingTactick]

Another great video Peter, I can only dream to have this sought of tropical orchid farm, absolutely loved it👌👍💕💕 salute from Australia

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks 🙏

[@JohnDoe-fv3vs]

I wish I lived in area where I could grow year around and not just spring/summer.

[@thisisthewronghat2706]

You should research walipini. It’s a way to grow plants in the cold without a traditional high energy input greenhouse

[@kerlor478]

Wow, love everything here. I can totally see myself with this addiction lol 😍

[@BeautifulTripsandPlaces]

Beautiful!

[@halalplacestoeat9444]

Please revisit this place in 5/10 years time. Would love to see it thriving with fruits

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

For sure!

Amazing job Pete. This is a fantastic property

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Michal Cukrowski thank you! 👊

[@allanturpin2023]

Cool install Pete. Just finished checking out your whole library of videos... back to the food forest in containers in suburbia days. Gavin was so little! Funny how so many people commenting said they found you because of Justin Rhodes... because I found him because of you. No offence to him... he's got tons of good info, but what you are doing is far more relevant for me (also zone 9b), and with your professional background you convey that info better, usually answering my questions before I need to ask. Anyway, just wanted to say thanks. Looking forward to more.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Allan Turpin very cool! I appreciate your support. It’s crazy how time flies and how far I’ve come😬

[@thefarmerjimmy3979]

Inspired viewer here from Philippines

[@lotusrosemassagetherapy8134]

Curious if you had considered swales instead of waterlines and if so, why you chose water lines? Great video!

[@phloxfarms6595]

Moving North to Ft. Myers in a month. Looking to a similar idea shortly, just on a smaller scale. Looking to your video for inspiration. Excellent video.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

zak karto thank you! This was my first experience in this part of Ft Myers, I really liked it.

[@pronounceword]

I like your video very much. It's really great. I'll keep an eye on your channel. I am your fan and I will support you.

[@GuitarKitchen]

would love to see this a year later!

[@jahnviiasharr6582]

I hit like, as soon as i heard first few lines of song, when the choice of song is soo good, video had to be awsome...❤

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks 😊

[@katrinaharvey9952]

This is truly motivational. I love it.

[@victormartinez6959]

Beautiful i have several tropical fruit plants grown from seed and cuttings but there are only a couple months old they are in the ground already

[@leighannamarie3992]

STUNNING!!!!!

[@TheBarefootedGardener]

Awesome! I’ve been studying permaculture as my winter project, since it’s frozen in NY... I’ve heard you can use coffee as an understory shrub, if you can grow citrus and coconuts, couldn’t you grow coffee too? That sucks about your food poisoning!

[@robertberman6275]

Great job, loving it! Thanks for the great content and information.

[@gurbhalla]

Great video looks so great and productive

[@mrussell9258]

I'm sorry but people are just rude. Beautiful video and 162 👎. Very nice video Pete, Inspired me to put more trees in the ground. ❤

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks 🙏

[@albertbeauchesne2882]

Have 1 and 1/4 ac in New Port Richey. This is my dream.

[@dare369]

Awesome design

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks 🙌

[@jodiethuy4122]

Hi Pete, that’s a big project! Looking good! You mention about putting a water system! With all the rain in fort Myers do you need to water the fruit trees?

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Hey Jodi! We find the irrigation essential for initial installation and during dry season. Most of these trees will be flowering and developing fruit while normally we are in dry season, the irrigation will help greatly with fruit development and production. Also because of the raised beds due to flooding problems they will dry out quicker.

[@leah3535]

Was there ever a part 2? Can’t find it

[@GlorifiedGremlin]

God I would kill to see what this property looks like now, 4 years later. I bet it's like the damn garden of eden lol

[@SundownFarms2024]

Pete k., keep up the good work.

[@achyutakrishna]

Awesome work boss. Keep rocking.

[@LPVit]

just recently started watching your videos and it's so cool to see people creating entire food forests in their yards, I'm so jealous! are you gonna return to this place to see how it's doing? I'm very curious

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Welcome to the channel! Yes, I plan on doing lots of follow up videos this summer.

I live in Ft. Myers Fl and am looking to do something similar to thise but on a much smaller scale. I've got 10 trees so far on 1/2 acre.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Charles CHUCKC great area to be growing! If you need any help give us a holler.

[@leighannamarie3992]

You wouldn't believe just how excited I am that we can keep our live oak in front of our home AND that citrus will grow BETTER in its understory! We have two live oaks and have to get rid of one in the backyard because it's right next to the septic (we only have a 1/4 acre). May I please have the link to your other video where you mention citrus growing better near live oaks? Or any info you have Please? Thanks! We're in zone 9b. 😄

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

[@chekenolchannel9692]

Good info & reference. Thank you.

[@indahmomof4awesomekids141]

Wonderfull

[@ILOVENJ00]

Very interesting video. I have a question - if the homeowner wants to harvest low-hanging fruit, how often should the larger trees be pruned- like the mango, black sapote, lychees etc.? And what is the best season for pruning? Thanks!! Btw, I am in Ft. Myers.

[@bruceparker6142]

I'm about to work on a half acre tropical farm (house included). My main concern is the fruit trees reducing sunlight to the leafy greens, cucumbers and the rest of my "veggie" garden. 20 feet spacing seems good for the trees but I have doubts about the shadows they might cast over the "veggie " garden. Any advice?

[@rajveersingh8918]

very good video its my first video i have seen and I like it thank you.... I have just question what is the total area of whole field i.e; front area+house+garage+backyard garden... total area of that compound....

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Thanks! This site was 1.5 acres.

[@hgh1727]

So 2 years later and there is still no part 2?

[@milkweeddreams8828]

So not fair, I'm in Iowa for a month and you are torturing me with tons of great info I can't wait to put into practice...dude, I got it bad, can't wait to get back and pound you know what...awesome video, per usual...btw, is that design in the shape of a guitar...just curious...

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Milkweed Dreams haha I feel your pain! No the design wasn’t planned to be guitar, we just got lucky 😬

[@BushImports]

Are they going to let you go back and video it after everything is finished with the gazebo and grass and looking good?

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

I sure hope so! I try to do follow up videos on all the jobs we install.

[@SusanDrahos]

What song was that intro!? It is so cool!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Dirty heads, vacation 😊

[@dibalowen7074]

I really enjoy your tours and am learning more about fruit tree. Are there any food forests that I cam visit in Lake Mary FL or Orlando area?

[@catherinelong4682]

Do you know anyone who can do similar work in 7b NC? Not as elaborate limited resources...less property....1.5 acres clay sand /depleted soil....cost to help design /advise how to prepare and incorporate existing mature landscape. To get a food forest started in my area.

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Catherine Long I would check out spiral ridge Permaculture, they are doing some great work. I think Asheville has some a few companies also.

[@lucasgrowsbestyt]

Wow! Awesome video! What camera did you use?

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Hey Lucas! I use a Sony A6500 with a sigma lens and a gimbal. Nice channel and thumbnails! I’ll check out a few of your videos, keep up the good work 👊

[@lucasgrowsbestyt]

Ok, thanks! I am looking into getting a better quality camera to up my KZbin game! Thanks for the compliments on my channel, I really appreciate it! I want to start making some videos with special effects on After Effects soon..

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Very cool!

[@planetbob4709]

Love your vids Your audio keeps fading in and out. Is there anything you can do to fix that? Mimosa? That is a very vigorous plant. Don't they make you a bit nervous?

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Frank Johnson yeah I’ve been having some audio issues, I just purchased a new mic. Yes the mimosa is very vigorous but that’s what we want.

[@mattmcghee1137]

great vid, thanks for the inspiration, do you ever come back to some properties and see the progress, I would love to see this one in a few years

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Matt McGhee yes I’ve done a few follow up videos on other projects. I’ll be doing a Jubilee follow up very soon.

[@mattmcghee1137]

I’m fairly new to your channel. I guess I could have looked more 🤣

[@brad4theanimals]

Have you ever designed or installed anything in zone 5? I'm currently trying to find a piece of land to do this exact thing but maybe incorporate a geodesic greenhouse dome since....winter..

Hey Brad-! No I have not worked in that temperate of a climate. I would just out the permaculture orchard in Canada.

[@greenfingersclubmalta]

Hey, thanks so much for the video! You said something about the sad looking mango reviving after heavy pruning, and wonder whether that can apply to other kinds of trees? I've got a wild almond tree about 4 feet tall - it was dormant and the branches were all crooked when I received it as a gift from a farmer. I pruned it gently, but when it started sprouting leaves and shoots, all the shoots were again coming out from all the wrong directions. I had to prune it back more aggressively (again) but as soon as I did that, the leaves became all sad and dried up. I also made the mistake of leaving it in the sun for a week, watering only once ... Could it be dead? Or should I wait? Thanks so much!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Nadia glad you enjoyed! I would wait it should recover with proper watering. I’d try to find a spot with dappled light until it recovers. Good luck!

[@greenfingersclubmalta]

Thanks so much Pete! Indeed, I've placed it on a rooftop under the solar panels for shade, as unfortunately I don't have an area with dappled tree shade yet. I'm checking its soil and watering it about twice weekly during our warm Mediterranean spring, but no sign of it coming around for the past 3 months. It just looks like a bunch of dead branches. How long do you think one should wait before such a tree is declared as 'officially' dead? Hopefully it isn't dead, but I really don't have high hopes, alas :/ Once again, well done for the video!

[@conniejones8588]

Hey Pete, what do you think of sunn hemp as path material? Great video!!!

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

Hello! I love sun hemp! It doesn’t work well in paths because it gets very tall and hard to cut. We grow it in different areas every year.

[@MSouthworth85]

How do you usually handle torpedo grass? I have that stuff coming up everywhere in my food forest

[@PeteKanarisGreenDreamsFL]

MSouthworth85 that stuff is brutal! Very mindfully. It’s very difficult and time consuming but can be overpowered with lots of effort.
