Orion Kriegman wants to fill Boston with hundreds of places
where people grow food together. And not just grow food, but reconnect
with nature, while cultivating neighborhood friendships that knit together the
city’s diverse cultures.
Can he do it?
So far Mr. Kriegman and an enthusiastic group of like-minded
activists called the Boston Food Forest Coalition (BFFC) are moving forward
with a half-dozen “forest gardens.” Each garden will host a panorama of
food-producing plants, including trees and shrubs to mimic woodlands. The BFFC
also aims to “revive and conserve” old, neglected city apple orchards.
I had two plots in my local community garden for $10 a piece and harvested probably $100 worth of veggies or more. Love a good deal.
