Description
Foodscaping is an alternative to conventional landscaping, integrating food and ecological design into our everyday landscapes. Guided by aesthetics and natural systems, foodscaping encourages lush, vibrant landscapes that offer forage for bees and butterflies, seed and bugs for birds, mulch for microbes, and homegrown produce for humans. In this presentation, Mr. Lekich will discuss the philosophy and design principles behind foodscaping, as well as look at examples from Nashville and beyond.
