‘They adopt the Permaculture design system and build an amazing organic home, farm and lifestyle.

The 70 minute version (plus 25 minute virtual tour of The Food Forest) is available for individual sale and community screenings via www.foodforest.com.au
The Food Forest is a permaculture farm producing 160 varieties of organically certified food; it is a busy centre for people interested in learning skills for a sustainable way of life through short courses and it is the base for a consultancy service specialising in the design of ecologically sustainable properties.
The Food Forest is being developed by Annemarie and Graham Brookman and their children Tom and Nikki, to demonstrate how an ordinary family, with a typical Australian income can grow its own food and create a productive and diverse landscape.
