Permaculture, Syntropic, and Forest Garden Design in Brussels
Designing Gardens as Living Systems
We design food gardens in Brussels and Belgium: vegetable gardens, edible gardens, forest gardens (or edible forests), orchards, and permaculture and syntropic systems.
These approaches involve thinking of the garden as a living system.
Plants are not randomly placed: they are organized in layers, successions, and associations to interact with each other, produce over time, and adapt to the site's conditions.
They feature structures similar to natural forests: trees, shrubs, perennials, and annuals that coexist and evolve together.
Our approach
Each place is different.
We always start with the existing site and your desires: what is already there, what you want to do, what the site allows.
Our expertise lies in designing food-producing systems, edible gardens, and gardens that nourish both humans and living organisms.
We use permaculture tools (observation, implementation, space organization) and syntropic principles: plant succession, biomass management, density, and stratification of plantings.
In other words, we design gardens where plants support each other, where soils regenerate, and where the system grows richer over the years.
We do not aim to fix a garden in time, but to establish dynamics capable of evolving over time.
What we offer
Every project begins with a meeting. We take the time to discuss, understand the location, constraints, uses, and desires.
From there, we offer:
- a site diagnosis
- a design for an edible garden (vegetable garden, forest garden, orchard, etc.)
- a selection of suitable plants
- a timeline (phases, seasons, developments)
We can also assist with the garden's implementation. At the nursery, we have a wide variety of plants—vegetable plants, herbs, edible perennials, small fruits, fruit trees—that we can directly integrate into projects.
Who is it for?
We work with:
- individuals (gardens, balconies, plots of land)
- communities
- associative projects
- collectives
Projects can range from small urban spaces
to larger plots of land.
Why choose us?
Designing a food garden takes time and a certain level of expertise: choosing species, organizing plantings, understanding the soil, adapting to the climate.
Our work involves proposing coherent systems, adapted to the location, and capable of evolving over time.
