artgoodies garden tour

I’ve always loved to garden. I find it therapeutic and peaceful. Watching things grow and change whether it’s a flower or a veggie plant makes me happy. I just had a magazine photo shoot at my house so it was a super motivator to get my gardens back up to snuff. This was quite a challenge with the heat we’ve been having so I had to call in a super friend, aka garden ninja, for reinforcement and water like crazy.  I thought I’d give you a little garden tour through the side gate.

This little area was in need of some mega help. So some little plants friends, paving stones, and mulch came to the rescue. I'm pretty sure the meter man will be happy he has a path!

Here's my little side yard. 3 veggie gardens take up the space, one new this year! Lots to harvest in this little space. Some new plants in the back corner add some extra plant awesomeness too!

Hello Buddah, relaxing on a cement step that houses some kind of manhole for who knows what back in the day, makes a perfect stage for my zen friend!

The more traditional side of my garden. Lots of great plants that bloom in stages for great color from spring to fall!

A great place to gather with a friend! My vintage patio set fits right in! Lots of lovely plants on this side of the garden. There's even a tiny pond hidden behind a giant hosta!

In the very back of my yard I have a little swing to take in the view. The moss garden is back this year and the very back garden has been expanded next to the swing.
