Landscape planting for food involves the strategic use of ornamental plants and edible species to create productive, diverse, and sustainable landscapes. This practice encourages the integration of food crops into urban and rural environments, providing fresh produce in small spaces while supporting biodiversity. Edible plants such as fruit trees, herbs, and vegetables can be incorporated into ornamental garden designs, offering aesthetic value while contributing to local food production. By incorporating landscape planting for food, communities can reduce food miles, enhance food security, and create green spaces that provide multiple ecological benefits.
