A smaller forest garden can still contain a diverse range of edible crop plants, you just need to pay attention to the rootstock, species and final sizes
Laura on Facebook asked about plants for a smaller forest garden. Here are some pointers.
For more detail, see Creating a Forest Garden pp30, “Plants for small gardens”
Consider trained fruit trees eg espalier
Pollarded trees eg Small-leaved Lime, bay (can be pruned)
Smaller trees eg hawthorns, Pepper trees
Fruit bushes
All perennial veg, and ground covers
