Permaculture for your land
Turn your land into an edible forest.
Tell us where your land is and what your soil is like, and MyArbora designs the guild of plants that grow well together — on the map of your land.
Free. No fuss.
How it works
- 1
Draw your land
Where it is, your soil, your climate and the sun it gets.
- 2
Choose your first tree
A fig, an olive, a walnut… start with one tree and its guild. Then add as many as you like — your land keeps them all.
- 3
Get your guild
Companion plants by layer, with a harvest calendar and where to buy them. Every tree you add brings its guild to the same land.
Built for edible forests, not for vegetable beds
Most garden apps only think about annual vegetable beds. MyArbora is built for trees and perennials. We started with Portugal and the Mediterranean climate — the ground we know best. We're growing into the rest of Europe.

Identify a plantWe don't suggest prohibited plants
Before a suggestion reaches you, every species is checked against the official invasive-species lists. Anything prohibited by law in your country never appears at all; anything invasive but legal appears with a caution, so you can decide knowing what it is.
Today we check the European Union list (Regulation 1143/2014, which applies in all 27 member states) and Portugal's national invasive species list (Decreto-Lei 92/2019, including the Madeira-specific entries). We have not yet checked other countries' national lists — we add more as we grow, and we always name the region a judgement used. When we hold no data for your country, we say nothing at all.
Information based on the sources cited, not legal advice and not a certification — always confirm your local rules.
