Getty Salad Garden
Project Summary
In 2015, we collaborated with Salad for President’s Julia Sherman and Terremoto Landscape on the Getty Salad Garden installation. The concept for this garden pop-up was to facilitate conversations and meals between artists to show how everyday meal prep can be an inspiration…which dovetailed perfectly with the Farmscape ethos! The exhibit ran for three months, from October that year through January of 2016. During that time, we were responsible for planting and maintaining the garden, providing the medium (beautiful greens) for this artistic organic endeavor.

Project Goals
Building on the labyrinth of tiered raised beds designed by our friends at Terremoto, our role was to bring these planters to life while providing a variety of textures, flavors and colors to the garden. With this in mind, we planted variegated nasturtium, amaranth greens, freckled lettuce, bronze fennel, edible flowers, microgreens and many other selections to provide Salad for President Julia Sherman with an abundant palette for her striking salads.
