Hi, I’m Alex.
I’m a Subtropical Agroforestry Specialist and creator of the Resilient Reforestation Method, a practical system for designing food and timber forests that thrive on neglect.
Over the past five years, I’ve dedicated more than 10,000 hours to researching and testing subtropical species, learning how to grow everything from locally collected seed and designing agroforestry systems that are beautiful, productive, and built to last.
When I first began, our 10-acre property was a degraded cattle paddock. After surviving the worst droughts, floods, frosts, and heatwaves on record, I realised none of the traditional advice worked in the real world. I needed a new way: one that didn’t rely on irrigation, chemicals, machinery, or endless labour.
Through relentless experimentation and a lot of trial and error, I developed a system that works with nature, not against it. Today, that same property has evolved into thriving food and timber forests that feed us year-round, restore biodiversity, and regenerate the land.
Now, it’s my mission to help rural property owners like you create forests that feed your family, restore your soil, and bring your land back to life, without the overwhelm or wasted effort.
Everything I teach is field-tested, simple to follow, and designed for real people with real lives.
Let’s bring your Dreams of Green to life. 🌿

Prior to starting the food forest course my husband and I had absolutely no knowledge and no idea where to start.
While completing the course, we loved that Alex is not prescriptive in how she teaches. There is no ego - simply the desire to empower people to succeed in creating their own design which works in synergy with their desires/tastes and their property/climate.
Thanks Alex, we've learned so much and I can't recommend your course enough!

Thank you Alex for an amazing course! So many beautiful plants. I've really enjoyed the seed safaris and learning how to propagate.
There were so many plants in our local area that I had no idea what they were until I took your course, and now I'm collecting seed everywhere!
I loved that I was able to come up with a food forest design that will complement my yoga practice for years to come. AND that it can pretty much take care of itself if life gets busy!
Thanks again Alex.

Thanks so much Alex for coming out today! My daughter was so pumped after talking with you and sharing what her vision and plan is.
She was so appreciative of your encouragement in what she was doing, as opposed to others who like to tell her how she should do it differently and that their way is better!
So thank you for the course, for your inspiration and for encouraging us along the way. Trust you can keep doing what you love doing, as you do it in such a lovely, personable way.
