Frequently Asked Questions

Our brand of sustainable landscaping marries local food crops with landscape plants that thrive in California’s summer-dry climate. Our gardens feed you, provide a habitat for pollinators and use 70% less water than traditional landscapes. We design, install and maintain Farmscapes for residential homes, multi-family developments and commercial spaces. Visit our projects page to learn more.

Anytime! We have a year-round growing climate in most of California, and it provides us with the opportunity to both install and plant gardens continually. There are better times of year to plant certain plants (fruit trees and California natives, for example), and the sooner you start the planning process, the better opportunity we have to time the project around those more ideal windows.  

California provides us with an incredible year-round growing climate and a wide range of plants that flourish in the region. We are able to grow most fruits, vegetables and herbs — except those that require harsher winters to succeed — as well as a variety of California native and California-friendly plants, to attract pollinators and provide year-round color to your landscape.

Urban farms are a key component of developing a less centralized and more resilient food system. Locally grown food tastes better, has a lower carbon footprint and allows you to enjoy a wider variety of vegetables, fruits and herbs than you’ll find at the grocery store or farmers’ market.

Organic farming means growing without the aid of synthetic fertilizers and pesticides and instead building soil through the application of compost and organic amendments. Using organic practices improves long-term garden fertility, decreases nitrate runoff and means you’re able to enjoy produce that hasn’t been in contact with synthetic pesticides.

Our projects range widely in cost depending on the scope and context, from a handful of raised beds at a single-family home to a multi-acre farm in an Agrihood setting. For residential projects, our installations generally start at $10,000 and go up from there depending on scope.
