food forests

A tree lover since the age of 9, George Remedios quit his advertising job and founded ‘The Turning Tide’ to increase the forest cover in Mumbai. So far, he has planted 12 food forests with edible fruits and encourages people to grow their own food, even in limited spaces.

Former Mumbai resident, George Remedios is creating food forests with saplings of papayas, guava, pomegranates, bananas, mangoes, drumsticks and more, while also helping communities like the tribals of Yeoor hills benefit from the harvest.
