We are excited to release a Plant List for Florida Food Forests and Foodscapes. This list is still a work in progress and there may be plants that are not currently on the list. The purpose of this presentation is to help beginners learn about plants they may have never heard of. It also helps lay out the way food forests are designed by briefly discussing the layers of a food forest.

The plant list is accessible by opening the link to our google drive where a pdf document of the presentation is available. Please protect our work by not distributing this plant list without our permission.
