Edible Estates

Edible estates is a concept that has been around for awhile but is now gaining in popularity.  It basically involves using vegetables to decorate the front lawn instead of shrubs and flowers or at least in conjunction with.  I think next growing season we’ll try some of this.  We might even enlarge our front flower bed again.

There is a neat website that I came across called www.fritzhaeg.com.  They help design and implement edible landscapes all across the country. They have a list of current and past initiatives including pictures.

Here are a couple of photos.  If you visit their site you can view many more including before and after shots.
