About Kaiapoi Food Forest Kai is in our name – connect, nourish, educate, and inspire. You will find the food forest on the corner Of Cass & Meadow Streets and Oram Place, Kaiapoi, New Zealand. Story Kaiapoi Food Forest Kai is in our name – connect, nourish, educate, and inspire. We are volunteers that are going to develop and maintain the food forest. If you would like to learn, volunteer, assist in anyway, please let us know. Whilst the primary purpose is a food forest, we are going to have creative seating, BBQ and maybe a pizza oven, outdoor art works, a learning centre.. all of these things will facilitate the long term sustainability of the food forest. Food Forests are living proof that industrial agriculture is not the only way to feed the world. In fact, we now recognize conventional agricultural practices to be a major contributor towards climate change, environmental destruction and desertification. The Waimakariri District Council is going to lease 1.5acres of land to the Kaiapoi Food Forest Trust to develop a food forest. A food forest functions as a healthy closed-loop ecosystem, with each organism playing a role. Each element of the system supports the whole. The many relationships happening in an ecosystem are imitated in a food forest which: • builds soil and accumulates nutrients • self-fertilizes, self-mulches, self-regulates • produces food, fiber, medicine, materials, fodder and more • Sequesters Carbon, offsetting climate change • provides habitat for all living organisms • supports pollinators and beneficial insects • protects and enhances biodiversity If you would like to visit the Kaiapoi Food Forest. You will find it on the corner Of Cass & Meadow Streets and Oram Place, Kaiapoi, New Zealand. You will find 1.5 acres, with lots of fruit and perenial vegetables and open spaces to picnic.
