A path through a green food forest

Available at launch

These features are available from 24 November 2026.

  • Food forest map & navigation

    View your whole food forest on the map, zoom in on a plot and navigate to any crop. Markers show how many crops grow at each spot and what there is to harvest.

  • Crop registration

    Find a species in the plant database, select the right cultivar and place the crop on the map: with your phone's GPS, with the My Food Forest GPS or by hand. Add the planting date, the supplier and, where relevant, the rootstock.

  • My Food Forest GPS

    Our own GPS puts crops on the map to within 10 cm, where your phone is usually metres off. Paired over Bluetooth in a few taps. To buy or to rent, for use from the Grow plan.

  • Crop information

    More than 1,000 edible plants, each with a complete profile: botanical name, type, height, origin, flowering time and harvest period per plant part, from fruit and leaves to nuts, tubers and shoots.

  • Own and new crops

    A species missing? Request it for the central database. Is it a unique variety? Record it as your own crop, linked to the base species.

  • Harvest calendar

    See per month and week number which crops are ripe. That way you plan harvest days ahead and know when you need extra hands.

  • Harvest module

    Record your harvest with weight, date, time and location. Choose between quick basic recording and a detailed version with harvesting method, quality and processing.

  • Recipes

    Add recipes with ingredients and preparation, and link them to the crop. That way the knowledge of what to do with your harvest is kept for everyone.

  • Events

    Create events with a name, description, date, start time and location. From guided tours and talks to cooking workshops and tasting days.

The app's management environment, registering a new crop

Managing your food forest

As a manager you have your own management environment. You edit your food forest's details, set its location on the map and keep track of how many members have joined.

  • Food forest details: name, address, country, number of members, planting date, website and email.
  • You decide who sees your food forest: make it anonymous and it does not appear on the map.
  • An overview of all your crops, events and recipes in one place.

My Food Forest App
