Edible Landscaping: See My Ornamental Edible Garden

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

See how I combine edible and ornamental in my garden.

Thanks to my friend Steve Benjamins for making this video for his Good Harvest YouTube channel.
