Food production can be difficult no matter where you're growing, but growing food on a smaller scale, in areas like backyards, small farms, urban areas, and shared community spaces, comes with its own sets of challenges. Agroforestry, the intentional integration of trees into food production systems, can be utilized in smaller growing spaces to maximize food production while also improving the environment, improving economic returns, and helping adapt to the effects of climate change.
