Natural building project at Lick Run Farm.This method can be used to make garden fences and privacy screens.
So pleased with this raised bed installation.Three bin compost system with removable slats. Made from upcycled fence posts. Poppies and other early spring flowers in a lawn to meadow conversion. Poppies and cabbage make a great combo. Pretty enough for the front yard.
Selling produce I grew on my farm at the Grandin Village Farmers Market
Raised garden beds for a sloped hillside at Carilion’s Morningside Urban Farm.
Low maintenance, drought and deer tolerant front yard garden.This shade garden in early Spring has an abundance of naturally occurring violets which I have left in place, while adding pops of intentionally planted early spring flowers like red poppy anemone (Anemone coronaria), daffodils, and tulips.
Summertime (even in the drought!) was beautiful in this lawn to meadow conversion.A decoratively planted cover crop of sorghum sudangrass, sunhemp, and buckwheat. Improving the soil in an artistic fashion!
Just in this little corner of the garden: comfrey, egyptian walking onions, nasturtium, basil, and thunbergia. I love planting high density gardens with a variety of useful and beautiful plants.
Chestnut rounds from a tree taken down on this gardener’s property were repurposed into this raised bed / modified hugelkultur. Maintenance job on a first year planting installed by EcoScape, another great local company planting lots of natives. They did such a wonderful job here, but wiregrass is still starting to invade the nicely mulched bed.Before and After. I have a lot of experience battling wire grass. It’s so important to stay on top of it! Especially in the first year of a new garden that was previously sod.
