Sustainable Saturday - Suburban Gardening with Children: July Update

As I look back on our season so far, it's amazing to me that just a few short months ago (April 2011) we were starting our seeds indoors.

Early this morning, we were able to harvest a few greens beans, a zucchini, a green pepper and a jalapeno pepper . . . with much more on the way.

I am very excited to report that our broccoli is finally starting to form . . . even though we've had temperatures in the 90s for the last week.  Broccoli is usually considered a "cool weather" vegetable, so I was surprised to see that our crop of broccoli is actually maturing.  (Good thing I didn't pull it out of the garden last week like I was thinking about doing!)

Here is an update on our Suburban Family Garden utilizing the Square Foot Gardening method:

Above pictured is our raised garden bed fully planted.  Included in this 4 foot x 8 foot raised garden bed are:

• Lettuce
• 4 Types of Peppers
• Parsley
• Onions
• Broccoli
• Green Beans (Pole)
• Carrots
• Tomatoes (Beefsteak &  Small Yellow)
• Basil
• Snap Peas 

Included in this 4 foot x 8 foot garden bed are:

• Eggplant
• Beans (Bush)
• Beans (Pole)
• Cucumbers

Included in this 4 foot x 8 foot garden bed are:

• Zucchini
• Basil
• Tomatoes (Beefsteak & Roma)

Included in this 4 foot x 8 foot garden bed are:

• Cucumbers

Sustainable Saturday - Book Review: The Edible Front Yard

The Edible Front Yard: The Mow-Less, Grow-More Plan for a Beautiful, Bountiful Garden is a new book for 2011 by Ivette Soler.  This book and concepts outlined in this book follow along with previous reads this year; The Backyard Homestead The Backyard Homestead: Produce all the food you need on just a quarter acre! and Square Foot Gardening: A New Way to Garden in Less Space with Less Work.  If you missed those book reviews, you can find them here:

Saving Family Green's Sustainable Saturday: Book Reviews of The Backyard Homestead & Square Foot Gardening

The Edible Front Yard I found so intriguing because as I have mentioned before most of our backyard is shaded most of the day, with the exception of the 5 garden beds that receive ample sunlight to grow most vegetables and fruits.  I have been thinking about the idea of incorporating edible landscaping into our blank slate, full sun all day Front Yard after reading The Backyard Homestead.

The Edible Front Yard has full-filled my desires to know more about what to plant in the Front Yard.  This book discusses plant types in detail in the front half of the book and lists "Superstars" of Front Yard Gardening such as artichokes which provide a leafy plant, the artichokes themselves, and if you allow the artichokes to fully open, a beautiful purple flower. 

The book discusses what types of plants will do well and look great in The Front Yard, what plants will not look great (carrots for example) and what plants to add to create structure for the garden, but are not edible.

“While hardcore food growers might argue that any plant that nourishes and sustains us inherently beautiful, some fruits, herbs, and vegetables are simply not the best choices for an edible garden with an ornamental focus.”

The Edible Front Yard Rules:

1. The entire plant must have a pleasing form.

2. It has to give at least two reasons to plant (color and form, or texture and seed heads).

3. Its leaves must hold up for the entire growing season.

4. Use hardscape (to provide structure).

Further into the book, there are design ideas for designing a Front Yard Garden including walking paths, sitting areas and plant material types.  

Before you dive right in and rip up your Front Yard, make sure you check with local zoning codes and City ordinances to make sure you are within your rights to convert your Front Yard into an Edible Garden.  For example read about what's happening in Oak Park, MI:

Woman Could Be Jailed For Vegetable Garden

Sustainable Saturday - Suburban Gardening with Children: Growing Raspberries & Blackberries

We were lucky enough when we purchased our house to have wonderful raspberries and blackberries growing in our yard.  This year these plants have an abundance of fruit that is ready for us to pick and eat.  It is rare though that they actually make in the house because everyone (including the neighbor girls) are eager to eat them fresh off the bush once they are ripe.

One thing we do need to set our sites on in the coming year is thinning and reworking the location of some of the plants so that it will be easier to pick the berries.  Here are few ideas utilizing raised garden beds and the concept of a trellis of wooden crossbars to support the raspberry plants.

Resources on growing Raspberries & Blackberries:

• Raspberries - Growing Raspberries - Raspberry Varieties

• Fine Gardening - How to Grow Raspberries

• PickYourOwn.org - Find out where you can Pick Your Own fruit and vegetables.
