  • We are back again with another incredible food forest to share with you from our visit to the panhandle a couple weekends ago. This time, we are visiting with Charles at his home to personally witness the legacy of a personal fruit tree collection he has acquired. We'll be showing off more bananas, blueberries, citrus, figs, persimmons, muscadine grapes & even avocados that are well adapted to occasional overnight freezing temps.
    Since so many of you asked in the comments, we knew it was time to venture out of our growing zone (just north of Tampa, FL). Here is the full North Florida series playlist:

    I have a fig tree that throws pups like crazy. And it produces the most figs for the longest time that I have seen. It has been a really easy rooster and I have given a lot of them away. If Mr Charles wants one I also live in 8b/9a in Silverhill Alabama. One tree has given me a gallon and a half everyother day for several months if you keep it picked off. It starts producing about the beginning of July till you get tired of picking it or it cools off. But I have picked it from June to Sept one year.

It would be awesome to get a list of the growers you know in my area (anywhere within 3 hours drive) that have similar climates and see what they have going so that I may learn more about the possibilities and gain potential ideas for my own food forest. .. again. great video..

First time in any of these videos I've heard the planter say the plants were "'way too tight". It was hard to see all that bare ground from a perma standpoint.

    Thanks so much very nice vid. I am from Miami were bananas thrive and am looking foward to finding the types that can grow in Panama City. In regards to a very knowledgeable and large reservoir of variety of bananas in Homestead Fl. south of Miami just North of the Fl. keys is a nursery that specializes in bananas named "Going Banana" the have (back about 10 year ago) around 70 or 80 varieties of bananas. I have contacted them and they don't have the need, so they really don't know about too much as to which variety does well in NW florida. but they might be a resource in regards to getting bananas tress that are geneticaly speaking "such and such" variety.
    Good luch with that mango :) your a better man than I in trying to grow it up this far north. but a mango rippend on the tree is insanely good.'
    there is a Miami Dade county park called "fruit and spice park" 60 or 80 acres which has a gift shop full of books I have gotten good info from both. Trying to learn about what grows in this area since hurican gave my 1 acre a buzz cut and have nice open lot for fruit trees...
    thanks again. Hector.
    P.S. Fairchild tropical Garden (south Miami fl.) large resource too. Mango festival in mid to late July!!!! Oh also Pine Island nursery in homestead fl.

      Pete Kanaris GreenDreamsFL I just watched the video and it's really life changing. I've read a lot abou Fazenda da Toca and I truly admire Mr. Diniz because he put Itirapina on the map of environment preservation. Also, his organig produce are well known in all the country. My grandma had a small farm. Part of the land was to traditional agriculture, and part was to organic syntropic production (we didn't know this name back then). There were fruit trees, medicinal plants, wood, bamboo, vegetables, cattle, pigs, a stream with fish, chickens, corn and pineapples. Unfortunately she sold the land years ago. I am using my own backyard as a classroom so I can learn something before I can start a homestead in the small land my husband bought last year. This video really opened my eyes. It is possible!
