Why Forest To Garden?
The internet is flooded with gardening advice. Some of it is helpful, but a lot of it is based on myths, folklore, or marketing gimmicks designed to sell you useless products.
I created Forest To Garden with a simple mission: To bring professional forestry engineering principles into the home garden.
A forest is a self-sustaining, perfectly balanced machine. Your garden should be too. Whether you are dealing with soil pH imbalances, struggling with tree diseases, or designing a drainage system, you don’t need guesswork. You need science.
Meet the Engineer Hi, I’m Ömer Buğra Avcı.
I am a Forest Engineer and a passionate advocate for science-backed horticulture.
Unlike lifestyle bloggers who view gardening as merely “decoration,” I view your garden as a living micro-ecosystem. My background in forestry engineering has trained me to look deeper—at the root physiology, soil chemistry, and hydraulic conductivity that make plants thrive or fail.
I have spent years analyzing how ecosystems work on a macro scale in forests. Now, I apply those same rigorous standards to help you build a resilient, low-maintenance, and thriving garden.
What You Will Find Here
- Engineering Logic: We don’t just say “water your plants.” We explain hydraulic lift and transpiration rates so you understand the “why.”
- Honest Reviews: If a tool is a waste of money (like cheap analog moisture meters), I will tell you. If a product is engineered to last, I will recommend it.
- Sustainability: Moving away from chemical dependency and towards biological controls and integrated pest management (IPM).
Gardening is not just an art; it is a science. Let’s engineer a better garden together.
