We manage three food forests in Central Broward County.

Thank you for visiting this page. We have spent several years building the Longwing Food Forest and we would like to, with your support, increase the public reach through:
defining zones within the garden.
labeling plants and updating our database with plant profiles including beneficial uses.
publishing educational materials.
hosting educational events.
We grow a number of edible, medicinal, and native plants and trees. Currently, our most prolific plants are listed below.
