This is an example of a mid-sized traditional full sun backyard vegetable garden landscape in DC Metro.

A space for growing vegetables and potting plants is made more aesthetically pleasing, with a geometric planter design, a large bubbling urn and natural clay pavers and bluestone slabs. A drip irrigation system keeps plants lush and thriving.

We refer to this style of garden as "basic," but it has all the features of a great growing space. You'll find raised beds filled with quality organic soil, rugged construction using natural (untreated) lumber, animal resistant fencing w/ground barrier, simple good looks, hinged gate with latch for easy access, and isles lined with weed block/crushed stone. At the same time, because we forgo some of the premium features of our "classic" gardens, our "basic" gardens and available at excellent prices.

HomeHarvest designed and built these custom cedar raised beds. Each bed has a built in reservoir, which makes them self-watering and only require watering once a week!

Newly built vegetable garden. Beds are built with 4 inch cedar timbers, pathways are soil (for now). Seven foot tall Critterfence deters both deer and smaller garden pests without detracting from the garden architecture.
