5EyesForest Garden Project

Improving everything a little

Adopt-a-tree

YOU MIGHT HAVE HEARD of regenerative agriculture, organic farming or even the idea of a food forest. Well, we have been regenerating the land here at 5eyesfarm – believing in improving food growing methods that will benefit people and improve production and vitality.

WE HAVE BEEN CREATING integrated farm systems believing that each thing we do can have more than one benefit. Now we are bringing it all together in a Forest Garden. This is the best way we can create food security and educate and empower social development.

WE INVITE YOU to partner with us. You can even have your own tree at 5EyesFarm and be part of establishing this model.

What is a forest garden?

A forest garden incorporates seven or more layers of a productive food forest. A forest garden (or food forest) is said to be the most sustainable way to grow an organic farm or garden. A food forest is diverse. The plants interact and support eachother becoming a superorganism (like a bee hive). What falls stays and there is little maintenance once it is established. Have a look at some inpiring stories on food forests here

Biodiversity

Sponsoring a tree creates greater bio diversity and more habitats for animals and insects to spin the web of life.

Reduce your footprint

Your tree will help to off-set your carbon footprint and reduce green house gasses in the atmosphere. 

Support small-holders

By sponsoring a tree you are enabling small hold farmers to convert to forest gardens creating many benefits.

Forest Gardens

Converting farms to forest gardens  strengthens food security, enhances productivity, restores & rehabilitates land.

Connect with nature by sponsoring your own tree

The trees we have up for adoption are all productive fruit trees 100% organically grown and tended. You can sponsor a tree, part own a tree or own a tree outright. You have full visiting rights both virtual and physical.

It is often cultivated for its fruit, but mainly in gardens, and is generally only sold in local markets because the fruit is extremely perishable and therefore difficult to get to more distant markets

Adopt a tree

For the cost of around a coffee each month you can do good for the environment by adopting a tree. This will help create a forest garden which in turn will help us to teach this vital transformation to local farmers.

What you can achieve

Help us help the local small hold farmers by establishing Forest gardens – starting with the model we are creating at 5EyesFarm

What you get

We believe that the partnership needs to be genuine and the adopt a tree needs to be transparent and connected. We invite you to visit either in person or virtually (see below). Once you name your tree/s you will receive a photo, an updated map and every so often a newsletter with a progress photo of your tree. You will also be listed as part of the regenerative forest garden family at 5EyesFarm.

By sponsoring a tree you are taking environmental action along with social action. Your sponsorship makes a real difference. As you will see in the updates and as the story unfolds this is a wonderful investment. Please consider gifting a sponsorship to a loved one or friend or share!

5EyesFarm Forest Garden has approximately 80 sapling fruit trees planted and starting to grow well. The plan is to create a forest garden on the whole farm. This is the last of a three-phase plan that has seen us rejuvenate and restore the soil and water, establish systems and integration and now this will culminate in a much-needed forest garden.

The whole farm will integrate this way and the cross benefits are countless. This is a perfect model for Green-Ed – and for social development in the local region.

Research shows that by combining the principles of permaculture, the methods of Natural farming and integrating the systems of the farm we can create the best of all worlds.

The adopt a tree program helps to sponsor this project so we can showcase a forest garden and inspire a rising generation with far more productive and secure use of their valuable lands.

Join us by adopting a tree/s and watching them grow, watching the story unfold and having a small part to play in the bigger story of transforming the lives of those who have so little. A little bit goes a long way so our average price for sponsorship is set to the price of a cup of coffee a month…

Gift a tree !

Consider sponsoring a tree or a few trees as a family, like adopting a living creature into the family. A Family Tree! Or maybe giving a sponsorship as a special ongoing gift.
