The Edgerton Avenue project site

The Edgerton Avenue project site as it was early 2009

The slightly sloping residential yard you see above is no longer. What once was a burdensome, unproductive yard is now home to fruit trees, a garden pond, berry bushes, scented herbs, perennial flowers, spring bulbs, raised beds, a grape vine and even hardy kiwis.

The same space in May of 2010.

To see how this system was planned and is progressing, please visit the Plant Systems page.

Below you can see the grand plan for the garden.
