Agroforestry
Image
A collection of resources tied to agroforestry in Vermont and beyond. Agroforestry is a rapidly growing climate mitigation strategy that brings together indigenous knowledge with modern day farmers looking for ways to enhance production and sustainability. Although there are an increasing number of resources available on agroforestry, few look take an in-depth specifically at species that thrive in the Vermont climate and soils.
Resources here were created by Farm to Plate's Agroforestry Priority Strategy Team. If you have suggested changes to the agroforestry species list, please submit at the link below. This may include species to be added or removed, or additional information that should be added. This information will be reviewed by members of the Farm to Plate Agroforestry Priority Strategy Team during their monthly meetings.
