Ornamental Food Garden
Want to harvest more food from your home garden?
(And make a garden that looks really beautiful?)
Forget the farm-style garden, with row after row of crops. (They’re practical for large spaces…but not ideal for a small home garden.)
Check out this video of my garden to see how I plant a mix of edible plants to create a garden full of colours, textures, and eye-catching form.
Grazing Garden
Home gardens are often small. Rather than focus on a whopping big harvest for storage, I like to focus on a wide variety of crops for harvest on an ongoing basis.
Think of it as a grazing garden. Pick something for each meal, whether it’s pea tendrils as a garnish, edible flowers, or herbs.
In a home-garden setting, where there are competing needs for a small amount of space, we can make food gardens that:
Look beautiful
Are compact
