By: Catherine Bukowski, John MunsellCollaboration and leadership strategies for long-term success
Fueled by the popularity of permaculture and agroecology, community food forests are capturing the imaginations of people in neighborhoods, towns, and cities across the United States. Along with community gardens and farmers markets, community food forests are an avenue toward creating access to nutritious food and promoting environmental sustainability where we live. Interest in installing them in public spaces is on the rise. People are the most vital component of community food forests, but while we know more than ever about how to design food forests, the ways in which to best organize and lead groups of people involved with these projects has received relatively little attention.
In The Community Food Forest Handbook, Catherine Bukowski and John Munsell dive into the civic aspects of community food forests, drawing on observations, group meetings, and interviews at over 20 projects across the country and their own experience creating and managing a food forest. They combine the stories and strategies gathered during their research with concepts of community development and project management to outline steps for creating lasting public food forests that positively impact communities.
Rather than rehash food forest design, which classic books such as Forest Gardening and Edible Forest Gardens address in great detail, The Community Food Forest Handbook uses systems thinking and draws on social change theory to focus on how to work with diverse groups of people when conceiving of, designing, and implementing a community food forest. To find practical ground, the authors use management phases to highlight the ebb and flow of community capitals from a project’s inception to its completion. They also explore examples of positive feedbacks that are often unexpected but offer avenues for enhancing the success of a community food forest.
The Community Food Forest Handbook provides readers with helpful ideas for building and sustaining momentum, working with diverse public and private stakeholders, integrating assorted civic interests and visions within one project, creating safe and attractive sites, navigating community policies, positively affecting public perception, and managing site evolution and adaptation. Its concepts and examples showcase the complexities of community food forests, highlighting the human resilience of those who learn and experience what is possible when they collaborate on a shared vision for their community.
“A highly useful guide based on the collective wisdom of people and communities who are defining this practice as they develop it on the ground. The thoughtful analysis of planning strategies and numerous case studies of active projects help us all understand what community food forests are and can be for the future.”—Steve Gabriel, author of Silvopasture and coauthor of Farming the Woods

Great cable
With no other reviews I was a bit hesitant to buy this cable at first. I've seen so many other brands and sellers that sell cable that is half the gauge they claim. Or cable that is not totally copper and has tin or other poor metals in it. Especially at this low price I worried. I went ahead and bought some anyway though and figured I would chance it. For the amount of money I'd be saving it was worth it. If it wasn't as advertised I could just return it anyway.
It arrived in a couple days. It is truly 1/0 AWG, and it is 100% copper. Strands packed dense but still flexible. Comes in a nice carry case. I crimped and soldered on some ends. Everything looks great and is working great. Would definitely recommend and would buy again.

Great wire.
Color: Black, Size: 15 feet
The flexibility is wonderful to work with. I used the red and black for a car audio application and it was a perfect choice for bending and snaking through the engine compartment and interior of the car. I have some just sitting on a bench and it still hasn't corroded and it's at least 3 years old. The insulation is very supple and has a nice feel to it and it carried current no problem of course.
