In the Garden

When I stopped by to take of photo of Pam’s back garden. I was surprised how serene her garden had become!

Birds were dancing in the Birch trees. The windchime moved softly in the breeze… and I wanted to stay all day!

Sherri needed a small patio near the playhouse for the grandkids to sit and enjoy. A Quick Patio was installed to keep it easy and cheap!

Thank you for the Little Pond!

Dear Kathy and Crew–Thank you so much for Monty the Turtle’s little pond!

We love his pond too. The sound of the waterfall near the bedroom window lulls Don and I to sleep each night. Monty seems to think he is Hawaii– wondering around his private oasis.

Thanks so much for all your time and effort.

Fondly– Cindy,Don (and Monty!)

Sustainable Garden

kathyalford — Sun, 03 Apr 2011 01:33:28 +0000

What is old is new again! Sydney’s back yard was typical Lakewood tract home– 50′s style. We took an old painted (red) patio and broke it up to make a new Urbanite patio with ground cover. New veggie boxes along with citrus and stone fruit were added. A potting shed and small seating area were adding to make this working garden pleasant to spend time in. Even a clothes line was added so Sydney can hang her clothes out to dry the old fashioned way. Just like my mom did in the 50′s.
