The Beacon Food Forest strikes me as a very though...

The Beacon Food Forest strikes me as a very thoughtful and open-minded project. The various volunteer groups and grants that are behind this space have a very community-centered approach. There are several areas that are open to foraging, including a double-helix shaped raised bed area, and a raspberry patch (ripe at the time of our visit in June!). There are garden plots which are rented out by community members. Finally, there is a nice rest area structure that folks can use to sit and find some shade.

Enjoy a peaceful stroll through the food forest and you will probably learn so much about the local ecology and permaculture!
