Our Front Veggie Garden

Front Garden May 2009- just beginning, planted a food hedge
After watching the video below about the difficulties of planting a vegetable garden in the front garden I realized  how lucky we are not to have such a problem. It is just two years ago that we planted a small food hedge, and since then the lawn has gradually been disappearing!

We think that the front garden looks much better full of food crops, and so much more useful!

Here you can see that our food hedge is growing, and so are the veggies and herbs behind them.

Here you can see the Mulberry  and Loquat trees and  a glimpse of the compost bin amongst all the other food producing plants.

The birds and bees love our changed garden as much as we do!
