Pocket forest information


A pocket forest has been planted in Danehy Park in Cambridge, Massachusetts

A pocket forest is created by planting native trees and shrubs in close proximity as a means of rapidly restoring native plant species in damaged ecosystems. While forests naturally grow through a primary stage and then a secondary stage before reaching their climax stage, pocket forests are created by a dense planting of climax stage species which grow rapidly in competition for sunlight. The concept is based on the work of Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki, whose "Miyawaki forests" have inspired a variety of pocket forest methodologies adapted to different climates and spacial constraints. Pocket forests have been embraced by environmentalists as a means of reforesting urban spaces and teaching urban residents about native forest environments.
