**Edible landscaping: If you're going to landscape your property with plants, shrubs, and trees, why not use those that will provide you and your family with healthy food? **Grow your very own food forest!

On his channel, James produces excellent content and demonstrates how an abundance of food can be grown on just a one-ninth acre suburban backyard using food forest principles. Products found at The Berry Booth represent the understory, the shrub layer, the herbaceous layer, the root layer, the ground cover layer, and the vine layer; all the layers of a healthy food forest, except the overstory layer. **Most importantly, have more control over where your food comes from and ensure it's grown using healthy practices, all while loosening Big Ag's grip on our food supply.
