Virtual | 2025 Northeast Miniforest Summit Coakee William Wildcat, founder and executive director of Mother Tree Food & Forest, will close out the first day of the Northeast Miniforest Summit! Presentation: Using the Miyawaki Method to Empower Agroecology and Food Forestry To conclude our first day together, Coakee invites us to explore how the Miyawaki method and successional agroforestry systems illuminate and empower each other. Native species forests are food forests. We’ll take a look at what the Miyawaki method teaches us about the ecology of the metaorganism, and how we can use this wisdom to grow healthier farms and gardens. Spread virtually across two days and an in-person bus tour, the Northeast Minforest Summit brings together practitioners, researchers, and leaders from a range of disciplinary perspectives—including city officials, landscape architects, scientists, and community organizers—to explore the Miyawaki method from root to canopy.
