Forest gardening is a low-maintenance, sustainable, plant-based food production and agroforestry system based on woodland ecosystems, incorporating fruit and nut trees, shrubs, herbs, vines and perennial vegetables which have yields directly useful to humans.

In the 1980s, Robert Hart coined the term "forest gardening" after adapting the principles and applying them to temperate climates.
