Welcome to Food Forest Farm!

We are happy you chose us as your source for useful, edible, hard to find plants and seeds, for your landscaping needs.

We specialize in plants for perennial landscapes including: permaculture gardens, edible forest gardens, food forests, edible landscaping and unique additions to any garden.

For a little history about our work. Jonathan Bates started this nursery after many years of learning with and being inspired by Eric Toensmeier of Perennial Vegetables fame.

In fact many of the temperate climate plants from his book are sold in the nursery.

Much of the seed and plant stock for the nursery come from the Holyoke Edible Forest Garden case study highlighted in the book Edible Forest Gardens.

This site will continue to be refined, updated and improved. Please come back to see us a again soon.

We appreciate your interest and support of the farm.

Thanks for visiting
