Agri-Landscape with TigerMountain Foundation. It is truly an incredible experience. But first let’s go over the basics of Agri-Landscape. Agri-Landscape incorporates edible fruits, vegetables, nuts, flowers, and herbs into your landscaping. Turning a front or back yard, or an empty lot or space into bountiful food helps alleviate food scarcity and reduces the urban heat island effect.

Our initiative creates edible landscaping and spaces of opportunity to enhance or replace “regular” landscaping on your property or empty lot. We do this by adding diverse edible landscape; pollinator gardens, healing gardens, fruit and citrus trees, fruit and vegetable gardens or a combination of some or all of the choices pending your preference. We work with our municipalities and other prevalent organizations on mitigating the issues of food scarcity and reducing the urban heat island effect. Edible fruits, vegetables, herbs, flowers are grown using water efficiency and soil conservation “Best Practices” and we empower our workforce participants through this workforce and experiential learning process.

Think about transforming your space or empty lot in this manner – we recently heard from a previous participant who converted his front yard into a garden and now trades the excess for eggs from a neighbor or a single mother who now provides more nutritious food to her family and gets a return on her agri-landscaping investment from the local Farmers Markets!! Imagine having fresh fruits, herbs and vegetables at your fingertips.

Whether you have a 20 acre ranch in the country or a couple of sunny patios in the city, there’s a way to make Agri-landscape work for you! Help us multiply the number of people that have access to healthy, nutritious food.
