Join the Association Food from the Forest

Building a healthy, biodiverse and fair food system together.

Food forests are new. How to create and manage them is still in full development. What we will do with harvesting, processing and market later on is also. How great is it to develop that knowledge together in an association? Where members also learn from each other and where we can increasingly look after our interests together.

You can participate in three ways: for free, as a platform participant or really as a paying, co-voting and perhaps co-building member of the Food from the Forest association.

The benefits and importance of being a member

Especially if you are interested in food forests you know that it is not about you alone! Then you know how big the ecological proles of this planet are. And perhaps also how serious our social crises are becoming. The association Food from the Forest is about exactly that: connection, association, sharing, and setting out together for a future that does have positivity. Full of green, healthy food, space for all life, and meanwhile improving soils, and binding CO2 and water. In order for food forests to truly be a part of the agriculture of the future, we need to band together as a movement. That's why it's important to be a member.

Growth of an increasingly connected network

The gateway to the world of food forests, where fun, pragmatic, passionate people, 'just' get started, learn from each other and strengthen each other to achieve the transition that is needed. That gives me the hope and confidence that things can be done differently.
 I joined Food from the Forest to connect with like-minded people, inspire each other and share knowledge.
Food from the Forest is the association where everything about food forests comes together for me: a wonderful community with experts and enthusiasts who realize wonderful food forest projects together. At Food from the Forest I meet fellow professionals, follow in-depth courses and gain inspiration for our cooperative, Voedselbos Zwolle.
We met through Food from the Forest, and with all the knowledge and inspiration we gained, we've now started our own food forest, Bosvol Smaak.
Because after Wouter and Martijn's amazing courses I was finally able to get started well-informed, highly motivated and after 3 years of impatiently waiting for my soil to recover, becoming a member was a logical consequence. Food from the Forest is for me an anchor for hope and an incubator for knowledge, development and collaboration.
As a young movement of food foresters and food forest farmers, it is important to unite, share knowledge, work together and grow. Especially around harvesting, processing and marketing. Food from the Forest does just that.
