I know if I was present I would probably remember a couple at the end of the lesson.Please feel free to connect me or add the one I missed. A question mark '?' means I am not sure I got it right. Please before eating anything from this list check that is edible. English is not my mother tongue and I might have misspelled something. Sometimes I wrote the minute, sometimes not. It should be enough for people to know when something was mentioned. Also when he mentions the same plant multiple times, I sign it multiple times, so you can find the various places where it is mentioned and information is given.
The perennial leek is also called 'Walking Onion.' (I purchased seed using the latter name, and I pickle the bulbils for Christmas. Very crispy. I like them). Other plants I have added to my own young food forest are - Blackcurrants and whitecurrants. Tayberries, loganberries, thornless blackberries, blueberries and hybrid raspberries (the last of these 4 is much better for surviving high rainfall areas than my local native raspberry, in Scotland). I have just bought a Sorbus domestica plant, as the fruit is meant to be good. Gooseberries will fruit in dappled light shade. They sucker well under those conditions too. Amelanchier lamarkii - great for little fruits that do a smart job of distracting birds from your more delectable fruits. I use redcurrants for the same purpose. I highly recommend adding a few decoy fruit trees around your food forest to keep birds busy. Wild strawberry, as a ground cover. (Don't bother buying the white fruiting version of 'alpine' strawberry as it tastes awful. Nothing eats it). Incidentally, if you 'must' have strawberries and, like me, they are poached by birds every year - try the white hybrid strawberry called 'Snow White.' Tastes amazing, and throws out lots of runners while still managing to fruit quite admirably. Hazel - I have lots of these trees. Regularly pruned, they 'fruit' better. And if you start pruning them while still very young, just nipping back the tips after the 2nd summer from seed, they will fruit earlier than the standard 7 years from seed. Sloe, damson and cherry plum. (I have just sown some Shepherd's Bullace seed, the native British plum. Very tough little tree, good grower and covers itself with fruit. Actual trees are expensive and few, nearly always quick to go out of stock). I bought an Aronia, which is a pest in warmer climates like California. However, in the colder Scottish climate it is markedly better behaved and starts fruiting from a very small sized plant. Also, do look for 'perennial celery.' I found seed of this last year from a British seed merchant, the stems are thinner but taste stronger, growing to about 3ft. I had half-expected this to be killed by the frosty Scottish winter - but it's still green and growing. Really happy with this). For an even stronger celery taste, grow 'Alexanders.' Easy from seed, perennial, strong, doesn't mind sun or shade, a few leaves go a long way in a salad. The seeds are said to be an alternative to pepper - but I tried this and they're not convincing. Mahonia - berries make a decent enough jelly, if you don't mind playing about a bit with sugar levels. I bought a hybrid Mahonia some years ago, and I now pick 2 litres of fruit every year. Sweet Cicely - sun-loving perennial, liquorice scented leaves, the roots can be rendered down to make a sugar alternative with a liquorice flavoured twist. Crab Apple. Surprised this wasn't mentioned here. I like using these. Flowering Quince. I have 2 plants that fruited for the first time last autumn - from cheap supermarket plants bought several years ago. So, buy bigger. Sugar Maple. Wouldn't be without them. As well as the Walking Onion, I also grow Welsh Onion, Ransoms (Wild Garlic). Pignut and Earthnut. (The former is a bit tricky to dig up, so a good one to give to children if you want to teach them the art of patience. Keeps them absorbed for hours, and the result is a tuber that tastes like a water chestnut). Salsify is a good tuber-producing too. Easy from seed, and pretty dandelion like flowers. With care, you can cut off little side-tubers from the main one and replant these to keep them going for years. Oh, and Red-Veined Sorrel. This one self-seeds and just pops up everywhere. Likes sun and shade alike, and makes a pretty ground cover.
I'm Reading Martin Crawford book 'Creating a Forest Garden' and it is definitely one of the best permaculture books that I've ever read, despite the fact that it has no claim to be a permaculture book. Succinct, Well organized and hugely informative. This makes watching this video even more interesting.
This is exactly how my Grandparents and Parents grew food in our farm back at Puerto Rico. Is wonderful to see it being implemented more often in other places around the world! I am now starting doing my food forest in the states and it takes years to get to such a beauty! This is the best sustainable way to go while respecting our environment!

Wonderful to get such a long and close up look at Martin's garden. Found his book incredibly inspiring and I'm in the early years of creating a small forest garden on my average suburban plot. Thanks for this video!
Love, love ,love ... I've been doing this just off of intuition, the love of all nature, natural medicine and food. This video is absolutely wonderful and has only seeped my understanding of the intelligence behind this design ❤
American elder, native here, we use the berries in muffins, When cooked they explode bright brilliant blue and my kids call them Smurf berries. Interesting flavor berry remind me of sea grape..more savory than sweet. Love the info about pine tree resin. I've always thought that stuff is so pretty, and smells so good and been fascinated by how sticky, especially as a child lol Love pine needle teas too, the vitamin c! :)
Love pine needle tea over here from our native Scots pine. Just looked American Elder / Sambucus canadensis up on Wikipedia, very similar to our Native Black elder, Sambucus Nigra. Interesting how similar many species are in different parts of the world, thanks.
Wow just wow! I was scribbling notes on my blotter like crazy (and appreciate the fellow who, in comments, wrote down most of the names;~). I'll be reading your book and no doubt looking for other bits and pieces you might have on TH-cam. Biggest difficulty for me will be translating what will work into my own garden (small suburban lot, US zone 5b in a high and dry climate ((Denver)). The difficulty is also the fun of a garden so you've given me a ton of fun. (just a little local note our weather today will reach a high of 70 ((F)) with lows tomorrow minus 1 ((again F)) and some snow. Thanks for the video and thanks for the knowledge!
to trees woods and forest gardens.. Thankyou for posting this.. It took me about a week to get through it because each sentence required me to go off and look up new things and order seeds and make notes.. Just information packed and exciting.. To several other people in the thread.. very surprised to hear quite a few negative comments.. This youtube world is very strange.. there is enough content here for several million lifetimes.. Please if you're not enjoying this video try the links in the side until you find something you do enjoy.. This was somebody who had probably paid to go on a walk with Martin.. had taken their time and trouble to try their best to film it and share it with us expecting nothing in return.. there were children there because yes.. there were children there.. it's not a Hollywood movie.. and obsessing over definitions as if they were things that people owned.. very odd.. l
Apologies for no subtitles, TH-cams auto generated subtitles tool cannot pick up the sound on this video. If you would like to contribute to the subtitles / CC please follow the link.
Great question thanks for asking, quick answer is we would just get less views. Long answer. If we had less than 1000 subscribers it will mean this channel can no longer monetize and have advertising and therefore earn money from views, currently about $10/month. The problem for most smallyoutubers is not the loss of the money, we do this for fun, it is the fact that youtube promote monetized videos and channels above non monetized. (This channel was never monetized until it became clear that youtube push videos from monetized channels and after monetizing our views went up. We do not put adverts during our videos not even this one hour vid. Our latest video is demonetized and open source.)
Excellent, Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and experiences 😀. May I also recommend your book, Creating A Forest Garden - WORKING WITH NATURE TO GROW EDIBLE CROPS 👍.
Minute 25:30-56 he is talking about a bee friendly plant but I cannot catch the name. Something like Burberry or Buerbery, I don't know. Anyone can tell me what is the exact name? I'm a beekpeer and it's interesting for me to know what kind of plants the bees love.
Davide Mazzotti .would subtitles help to know what they said,I find it very helpful for spellings.if you get subtitles, let me know because despite being on automatic subtitles,I don't seam to get their subtitles coming through.
The guy in the video is located in Devon, UK, climate is temperate, couldn't tell you the zone though, I'm sure research would yield those results, but I know it's a warmer part of the British Isles.
This type of bamboo is horribly invasive here and unless you are really really really going to use a lot of it and spend a lot of time controlling it, I would recommend only bamboos that are native to your area so they don't escape.. there are only so many bamboo shoots you can eat..
Thanks for your comments. There is a good argument for only native species but we don't have any native bamboos (that I know of). The main use for bamboo is for garden stakes but shoots are also harvested and eaten widely, if managed there should be no escape from a garden.
Just worry about..here in Florida that non native bamboo is soo invasive and there is so much of it everywhere here already that there is no point in planting it. Anyone would be happy for you to take some from their yard for once they plant it it's out of control here and they want it gone, but good luck to them getting rid of it, takes over the whole yard. Spreads everywhere and just keeps coming back. I'm absolutely ok with useful invasives, just make sure you can keep up with them or they can take over your yard and..Just in certain areas anyway, like mine, be very careful with that bamboo! eek! :) .
We have similar problems with Japanese Knotweed, giant hogweed and other really invasive plants, but here bamboo is just prolific and can be controlled, but we should all try and grow native where we can and from what you say Bamboo is a no-no in your part of the world. Thanks again for your interest and your comments.
Agreed. Bamboo is way too invasive in my area. To control it is a huge input of time and energy and if neglected it just overruns the lot displacing anything useful. Therefore bamboo is forbidden in my yard. I will buy a can of bamboo shoots for the odd time I would ever need some.

Nice try but I am on automatic subtitles. Don't you need to turn on at your end? Mind you, it's cheaper and very much less work not doing subtitles, maybe it's just an elementary mistake by......wait for it......the classic one.........computer glitch ¿¿¿
This channel is a hobby, spent 2 hours last night trying to turn on subtitles, YT are no help whatsoever. I was hoping you would know how and would speed up the process, I guess not.
The authors unwillingness to face the camera makes lip reading impossible, and inaudible. His vagueness in describing what he does plant makes the rest meaningless.
My goodness. You have a bizarre collection of different plants from all around the world. All of these "imports" will either be invasive, require intervention, or be unsuitable for the natural ecosystem. I am sorry, but this "manufactured" forest is an absolute sin to the concepts of permaculture. Permaculture is working with nature and the indigeneous species that have developed in that environment. ie, they are permanent, have been permanent after millions of years of adaption, and will flourish all on their own without "farming", "planting", or "introducing". You said it all in the first 5 minutes. "I am experimenting". Permaculture has got nothing to do with experimenting, experimenting is called farming ! And that is where it all went wrong, and the impetus behind the permaculture movement. Call it agroforestry, or aboriculture, but please don't try and stick the label of permaculture to this system. It just denegrates and misrepresents what permaculture is all about.
"Martin Crawford is the founder and director of The Agroforestry Research Trust, a non-profit-making charity that researches into temperate agroforestry and all aspects of plant cropping and uses, with a focus on tree, shrub and perennial crops." -Wikipedia
Permaculture simply means setting up a system that will be stable and grow and produce 'permanently" as opposed to for a short window.. That's all. The first rule of permaculture is to listen.. If you listen carefully here you will hear a very experiences considered thoughtful inforamtive man sharing his passion and wisdom.. Without experiemtnation we learn nothing.. All species are indigenous to this planet as are we..
Quote from Martin's book: 'biodiversity in the uk is relatively low, and a forest garden made of native plants would be hard pressed to feed you. Slows, wild haws and wild service berries, with wild garlic and ground elder beneath would give you a few meals. Hunter gatherers here woud have supplemented them with whatever wild meat they could catch. The food available would have supported only a small human population. I see little point in growing such a native forest garden, which would produce only a limited crop for the gardener.. ..I rather agree with David Holmgren (one of the founders of permaculture) In that, as a general rule, useful plants from elsewhere that increase local self reliance and efficiency of growing systems should be welcomed.
All this demonstrates Mark Edwards is your misunderstanding of permaculture when you wrote this reply, not Martin Crawford's. Keep observing, learning and listening and i'm sure your view will change (if it hasn't already done so). The co-originator of permaculture, David Holmgren has a completely different view to you. Perhaps you could ask him his views of your comment.

i got about the same. Rhubarb and artichokes are missing from your list. Just below wild garlic ;-)
Flowering Quince 27. 21 - beside it is a fig tree and the other side looks like an elderberry (not mentioned in the video)
25:22 is Berberis
27:11 is indeed Flowering quince (Chaenomeles japonica)

Hello
Where are the subtitles ?
Apologies for no subtitles, TH-cams auto generated subtitles tool cannot pick up the sound on this video.
Dislike because no subtitles for us deaf people that love gardening, please could we have equal access.
double checked settings, all should be working now, determined to sort this
I wonder about the equal access ¿¿

The authors unwillingness to face the camera makes lip reading impossible, and inaudible. His vagueness in describing what he does plant makes the rest meaningless.
You could take a look at his several books, just search for his name on Google. He is not a TH-camr, he is simply interviewed by several people.
Such a shame.
My goodness. You have a bizarre collection of different plants from all around the world.
All of these "imports" will either be invasive, require intervention, or be unsuitable for the natural ecosystem.
I am sorry, but this "manufactured" forest is an absolute sin to the concepts of permaculture.
Permaculture is working with nature and the indigeneous species that have developed in that environment. ie, they are permanent, have been permanent after millions of years of adaption, and will flourish all on their own without "farming", "planting", or "introducing".
You said it all in the first 5 minutes. "I am experimenting".
Permaculture has got nothing to do with experimenting, experimenting is called farming ! And that is where it all went wrong, and the impetus behind the permaculture movement.
Call it agroforestry, or aboriculture, but please don't try and stick the label of permaculture to this system. It just denegrates and misrepresents what permaculture is all about.
"Martin Crawford is the founder and director of The Agroforestry Research Trust, a non-profit-making charity that researches into temperate agroforestry and all aspects of plant cropping and uses, with a focus on tree, shrub and perennial crops."

Permaculture simply means setting up a system that will be stable and grow and produce 'permanently" as opposed to for a short window.. That's all.
The first rule of permaculture is to listen.. If you listen carefully here you will hear a very experiences considered thoughtful inforamtive man sharing his passion and wisdom..
Without experiemtnation we learn nothing.. All species are indigenous to this planet as are we..
Quote from Martin's book: 'biodiversity in the uk is relatively low, and a forest garden made of native plants would be hard pressed to feed you. Slows, wild haws and wild service berries, with wild garlic and ground elder beneath would give you a few meals. Hunter gatherers here woud have supplemented them with whatever wild meat they could catch. The food available would have supported only a small human population. I see little point in growing such a native forest garden, which would produce only a limited crop for the gardener.. ..I rather agree with David Holmgren (one of the founders of permaculture) In that, as a general rule, useful plants from elsewhere that increase local self reliance and efficiency of growing systems should be welcomed.
@@frenchyadamson Indeed. Novel ecosystems abound and it could very well be our saving grace when the fuel runs out and the climate becomes unstable.
All this demonstrates Mark Edwards is your misunderstanding of permaculture when you wrote this reply, not Martin Crawford's. Keep observing, learning and listening and i'm sure your view will change (if it hasn't already done so). The co-originator of permaculture, David Holmgren has a completely different view to you. Perhaps you could ask him his views of your comment.
