Regenerative Food Forests

Biodiversity and other
ecosystem services

Food forests are a sustainable agroforestry system that can provide food, fuel, and other resources while preserving biodiversity and ecosystem services.

Forests tackle the climate, Biodiversity and Food Crises at the same time, contribute to 27% of climate action by 2030 and are home to 80% of terrestrial biodiversity.

This lab's focus is the creation of market-driven solutions that generate revenues from nuts, Fruits and other non-timber forest products for local forest communities.

Brainforest's Innovation Lab for Regenerative Food Forests has been launched in partnership with the Minerva Foundation, with the goal of creating market-driven solutions that empower local communities to increase the value of the Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) they produce.
