These clients wanted to build a raised bed vegetable garden without sacrificing their existing pollinator plants…so we built them an aesthetic front yard garden that combines both!

Did you know? It only takes a few square feet to grow a large garlic harvest in your own backyard!

[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ link_font=”|700|||on|||#000000|” link_text_color=”#000000″ header_5_line_height=”1.5em” width=”90%” width_tablet=”100%” width_phone=”100%” width_last_edited=”on|desktop” custom_margin=”10px||10px||true|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

We typically plant and mulch garlic between October and November to protect it from harsh cold weather. Garlic planted in the fall will be ready to harvest next summer.
