Principle # 11: Use Edges and Value the Marginal
The interface between two media or environments is where the most interesting events take place. These are often the most valuable, diverse and productive elements in the system.
For example, where a forest meets a meadow or where land meets a river, we can find species of both environments present. Therefore, diversity of life is abundant here. Strive to create more "edge" in a landscape.
