I'm a Microforest Maker and Landscape Architect. I've been making public microforests in Canberra since 2019 and have made three home microforests - two in Moruya, NSW and one on a corner block in Canberra. During COVID I developed a list of plants for Canberrans to make a home microforest. Making public microforests takes a lot of community energy and time whereas home microforests are much more achievable. The more forests we can make, the greater the cooling, biodiversity and joy we can spread.
