MyArbora
Design your food forest on a satellite map of your land
Draw your plot on a satellite map. MyArbora estimates your soil, rainfall, frost risk and slope from the coordinates, then designs a companion-plant guild around a tree you choose — placed to scale at mature size, with harvest and planting calendars. 300+ species. Free, no signup.
Hi all. I'm planting a food forest on my land in the Algarve, in
southern Portugal. Every planning tool I could find was either for
annual vegetable beds or written for cool, wet northern climates,
so I built my own.
You draw your plot on a satellite map and it estimates soil texture,
annual rainfall, coldest-month low and slope orientation from the
coordinates — SoilGrids and NASA POWER, both free and open — and
asks you to confirm or correct them. Then you pick a main tree and
it designs the guild: companions across the seven layers, drawn to
scale at their mature spread on your actual plot.
Two things I'd like feedback on. First, whether the first thirty
seconds make sense to someone who's never heard the word "guild".
Second, the plant suggestions themselves — they come from a curated
species database via an LLM, which means they're occasionally
confidently wrong, and that's the part I most want caught.
It won't suggest anything that's illegal to plant in Portugal, which
turned out to be a real problem worth solving — several classic
permaculture nitrogen-fixers are on the national invasive list.
Free, no signup, nothing for sale yet. Around 300 species, weighted
towards Iberian and Mediterranean plants, so it'll be thinner if
you're somewhere cold.
