We at Eat Something Sexy are huge supporters of the idea of front yard gardens. In fact, guess what greats you when you visit our test kitchen? That’s right a xeriscaped, Southwestern garden full of organic herbs and edible flowers.
Oh, but how we wish we’d had a copy of Homegrown at the ready when we made our landscaping plan. The book offers an A-Z garden plan specifically for edible gardens. All your questions are answered from composting for herbs to organically battling garden pests.
The book is geared specifically for Southern California gardens, since this is where the author’s garden company, Homegrown Los Angeles is based. However, suggestions of plantings, like chard, heirloom tomatoes and tarragon in summer and leeks and shallots for fall and winter, work in many parts of the world.
