a forest garden ... or food forest ...
capital:
  • [mass noun] wealth in the form of money or other assets owned by a person or organization or available for a purpose such as starting a company or investing:rates of return on invested capital were high
  • the excess of a company’s assets over its liabilities.
  • people who possess wealth and use it to control a society’s economic activity, considered collectively:a conflict of interest between capital and labour
  • [with modifier] a valuable resource of a particular kind:there is insufficient investment in human capital

    Funny how you get used to a word so much you stop thinking about what it means.
    We have three capitals: financial, social and natural; and  our objective is social and environmental growth. Like this:

investing in our soil: constantly adding organic matter, increasing microorganisms, improving structure, going LARGE on compost....black gold!
investing in our habitat: planting bee friendly plants, trees and flowers and massively increasing biodiversity from a bracken and bramble tangle of low biodiversity value
investing in our plant life: using permacultural and no dig methods to increase perennial plants with food, medicinal and habitat value...triple whammy!
