The cottage gardens at the Meadow House were only put in 9 months ago, so there's still quite a bit of mulched space to fill. Instead of waiting for all the herbaceous perennials to fill out, we went ahead and planted a number of edible trees, shrubs, groundcovers, vining plants, and annual fruits and vegetables that we can collect throughout the season. Incorporating edible plants within a garden matrix can be a really beautiful and engaging experience overall. We'll take you through what we're growing and how we're designing it within the context of a small garden space on 1/8th of an acre.
