Tour, Taste & Educate
A one-hour guided walk through the food forest, with tastings along the way.
Located on the grounds of Yarra Valley Estate, the Edible Forest is a thriving one-acre permaculture food forest. Every plant is chosen with care—for its ability to nourish, heal, attract wildlife, or enrich the soil.
Our guided tours take you through this unique space, where you’ll learn about fascinating plants and discover practical ways to grow and use them at home. Accessible to all, this experience combines sustainability, education, and the simple joy of connecting with nature.
After the tour, stop by our nursery to take home a piece of the forest and start your own sustainable journey.
