Residents will do the food forest maintenance under the supervision of a forester. https://landezine.com/rijnvliet-edible-neighborhood-by-felixx/

love this idea of showcase gardens to teach people
about both gardening and biodiversity: A basic principle to stick to in wildlife-friendly gardening is to be inspired by nature, says Emile Forest, chief coordinator and gardener for Nouveaux Voisins. This is the approach Nouveaux Voisins takes with its showcase gardens. Each contains four to eight plant varieties that are found in natural environments like woodlands, meadows or prairies. A garden representing prairie conditions, for example, features airy clusters of tufted hairgrass and clumps of wild thyme, which blooms bright purple. Another garden inspired by meadows and open woodland contains tall pink and purple coneflowers, irresistible to butterflies and bees.
“With cuisine, chefs often say ‘If it grows together, it goes together,’” says Forest. “It’s the same in natural planting. If it grows together it’s going to look good in a garden, but you can rearrange it in a way that is more organized and orderly.”
