Dear Friends at the list:
        Last week I recommended Carolyn Nuttall`s book on this list, citing it
as "Agroforests for Children".  I inadvertently re-translated back from
the  Portuguese.  The proper name is "A Children`s Food Forest".  In any
case, the book continues to be excellent...
        In fact the name is significant, in that it is a CHILDREN`S food 
forest
i.e a forest made BY children and not FOR children... That is a
significant difference.. From the very beginning of Carolyn Nuttall`s
project, it was the children who did the designing and the
decision-making...
