Free Useful Plants Database

Plants for a future is totally amazing. This is a free online database created by a British guy who created his own permacultural food forest on a 24 acre property.

After working as a bus driver for 10 years, he decided to move to the country to change his lifestyle. He designed his farm according to permaculture principles with an edible pond, 3 dimensional gardening and the whole nine yards.

He kept meticulous notes on all the plants he planted and compiled them into a database of over 7,000 plants you can eat, make clothes out of, make medicine out of and use to enhance your garden. Best of all its totatlly free.
