Inclusive, Holistic ApproachesRe-Forested!
Graduate students in MIEH 690 took a field trip to the 10-acre Bowie agroecology site, Forested, founded and managed by Lincoln Smith. Many biodynamics were there to consider: edible species including both native and non-native fruits, veggies, and herbs; grafting techniques that enhance the fruit yield and taste of existing rootstocks; adjacent mature forest with wild orchids; humanure composting.
