Mini Farms

For those wanting a larger garden to grow food we also offer “mini farms”!  Mini farms are gardens using the traditional row layout of larger gardens without using wood to frame the edges of the beds.  While we love our wood garden beds, they involve a great deal of materials and labor to create and for those on a more limited budget that would like a larger garden, they often don’t make sense.

Like most edible gardens, our Mini Farms should ideally be located in areas that receive at least 6 hours of direct sunlight (the more the better), close to a water source, and ideally close to the kitchen.

Our Mini farm installations, include:

  • rich soil blend or amending existing soil
  • organic fertilizer
  • choice of organically grown in-season vegetable and herb starter plants planted as starter plant or seeds
  • bamboo trellises (for vining plants like tomatoes, cucumber, pole beans, etc)
  • mulch
  • plant identification tags
  • Written guide, ‘Intro to Growing Your Own Food’
  • optional automated irrigation system (additional fee)
