An Garden Not Just for the Stomach, but for the Eye...

A beautiful garden to sit back and enjoy its beauty is just as important as one that grows food. A garden's beauty can help to relax and add to one's well-being. Here are some special aesthetic touches...
My circle. A must have in the garden... to use for social and sacred gatherings. A circle is a tool to use to engage in dialogue, it offers a safe social space to explore topics of any form of thinking and doing, and it is a creative and fun place to host gatherings.

I made the arch way out of some tree cuttings and planted box wood to form the entrance way.


The start of our front yard flower garden. Sweetpeas to grow up the staircase, that way we can smell them every time we enter and exit our home. The rest is mix and match plants that needed a home from somewhere else in the garden... This is one space to play where it need not be an edible garden.

Some flower beds in the back to accentuate... BEFORE and...

AFTER... It took considerable time to transport chunks of grass from other unneccessary places in the yard to fill in this bare spot. Just one of the many things that is so time consuming that goes unnoticed.

And here is our precious buddha garden ready for beauty to 'spring'...
