In Episode 73 of the Permaculture Vine Podcast, Cormac chats with Travis Holzem of Food Forest Design Minnesota.
Travis Holzem is the owner of Food Forest Design Minnesota and a pioneering leader in the movement to revolutionize food production and sustainability.
At Food Forest Design Minnesota, Travis and his team are dedicated to transforming lawns, unused and underused lands, and farmlands into diverse, self-sustaining food forests. Food forests mimic natural ecosystems, blending fruit trees, shrubs, vegetables, and pollinators to create a self-sustaining environment. These low-maintenance ecosystems eliminate the need for pesticides, are adaptable to any climate, and provide abundant yields year after year.
By offering fully designed plans for individuals, families, and communities, Travis is breaking barriers, proving that sustainable home food production is both practical and accessible to all, fostering healthier communities, and reducing reliance on industrialized food systems.
In this episode, you’ll learn about the process of designing a food forest, the benefits of permaculture for community health, and practical advice on starting your journey toward self-sufficiency.
If you’re passionate about sustainability or looking to contribute positively to the environment, this episode offers actionable insights into the world of food forests and the principles of permaculture. Tune in to explore how food forests are creating change from the ground up. Grow with us!
