Biodiversity
Four storeys of canopy across 150 acres, and the count of what lives in them — earthworms quarterly, light in lux, dead wood by decay class.
- Bug HotelsA plantation can be full of plants and short of homes. Drilled logs, nothing introduced, and a way to see who turns up.
- The Flowering UnderstoryCoffee flowers for about three days a year. What feeds everything else for the other fifty-one weeks is the flowering ground layer, and six invasive plants are taking it.
- Forest IslandsSmall ecological nuclei built inside the planting — four metres of dung and green cuttings, then left alone.
- The Health IndexThe whole farm, read and measured — dead wood, fungi, worms, and one Ecological Health Index per block.
- Living SystemsA forest that produces crops. Four canopy stories read as one organism.
- The Light InstrumentShade whiskering, measured in lux. An old canopy craft, cut to prescription and validated against its own numbers.
