I missed this the first drive around the area looking for murals, so I'm glad I swung by a second time. This adorable patch of land was created as a free garden by The Bread Box, an art gallery 100 or so feet away. It's not a community garden in the usual sense of that term, hence my calling it a free garden: The signs welcome folks to take whatever they wish that is ripe. When I was there not much was ready for harvest, but what was planted included basil, cilantro, dill, squash, and tomato. The dill was ready, actually; some of it was flowering and so deliciously fragrant. The smell of flowering dill always makes me think of my grandpa, because he would use it in his dill pickles and that's what made them so delicious (to this day I can't eat any other dill pickles than what he taught me to make because they aren't as piquant because he used a lot). It made me want to start canning some dill pickles. This is a really sweet addition to the neighborhood and a lovely gift. I really wish free gardens and edible plants for municipal landscaping would take off; it's such a great way for neighbors to care for one another.

But that short walk boosted my mood immensely thanks to the park being filled with joyful people--playing basketball, playing soccer, playing on the playground, roller skating on the tennis courts. It was lovely! Park also looked pretty well taken care of. Bonus: it has a community garden and there was a guy in the park with a huge speaker playing music for everyone. I loved every second I spent there.

Before I decided to begin any landscaping, I asked Kris from Green Vision to come examine my front…read moreand backyard. My knowledge of plants is limited, and I wanted to make sure that I was going to plant long-lasting trees, shrubs, and flowers appropriate for my particular location and soil. In short, I wanted to make sure that I was going to get my money's worth before buying anything. During Kris's consultation, he talked with me about the current state of my trees, shrubs, and flowers; his knowledge and expertise is obvious as he discussed various plants with me and could answer all of my questions about what exactly to do with the plants I have and talked me through some ideas about plants I was considering to add to my landscape--and even told me when one of my ideas just wouldn't work long-term due to my location and soil (saving me money and disappointment). One of the best aspects of Green Vision's services is that Kris creates a report after the consultation that summarizes all aspects of our conversations and offers recommendations as necessary. That way, I didn't have to remember all the important details that we discussed during the consultation. An added bonus is that even though Green Vision does not offer landscape design or installation services, Kris knows trusted businesses that do. I highly recommend Kris and Green Vision before you decide to spend money on landscaping or need someone with a deep knowledge of all things green to examine your trees, yards, etc. and help you address any issues. Highly recommend.

Definitely worth checking out if you're nearby!
