Planting with syntropic agriculture techniques

The Green Rebel combines tree planting with education about Syntropic Agriculture, Agroforestry and land management. This is what they do.

I planted a big yard (6,000 sq. ft.) with over 400 plants 7 years ago. 70 native species. No soil prep. Med./large size bark covering the whole area 5" deep (lawn and bad garden). I planted 24 Alaska cedars, 8 Shore pines, 2 Douglas firs, 2 Red cedars, 8 Vine maples, 4 Douglas maples, 3 Cascaras, 1 Mt Hemlock, Red flowering currant, Serviceberry, Evergreen huckleberry, lots more shrubs and groundcover. Lots of food for birds. It is 12-15 degrees cooler in my forest than surrounds. Bird habitat and shade by summer. Use native plants only. Good luck.

Siémbrate nabos, comfrey, etcetera, para biomasa. Los nabos queden en el sitio. La avena y las habas, genial.

Great to see more Mediterreanan plantations! We're starting a project in the south of France! Lots to learn! What kind of soil preparations did you guys do?

Hi, from the hills west of Mora d'Ebre

Hola! Near Miravet?

[@sirnakerb209]

Great video. What pioneer species like the white poplar are you planting between the fruits trees as biomass accumulators?

[@kezzatries]

Subbed up, is this DryLand growing?

[@carlvanmeerbeek7327]

Hi, I'm in Priorat myself and am interested in syntropic agriculture. Is it possible to visit the project in Miravet? Thanks in advance

Seems like permaculture principles to me.

Question; How do you prevent that the young seedlings are being eaten by red deer and roebuck?

[@almabraun3799]

I like the concept but I'm also concerned about the maintenance issues how many people does it take to maintain a project like this in the short term as well as the long-term before everything goes to weed and seed and you have a big jumbled mess

[@exreality]

you sound dutch,

[@jaotonho]

Im really curious about the cost of all this system.

[@bowelterNL]

Really depends on where the trees come from, if you have a nursery at home, the costs don't have to be that high.

[@jaotonho]

@@bowelterNL yes, without a nursery is impossible accomplish this. One simple native tree is too much expensive for plant in large scale for make humus.
