QUILT GARDENS MAKE HARVESTING EASY!


From the Summer's Garden offers a wide selection of garden stepping stones and as their name implies, most of the time they are used to pave pathways throughout a garden. We have a fun colleciton of quilt stones that not only serve as pavers but also as building blocks to garfden design. Laurie and I had a ball planting this salad garden where the structure was defined by a quilt-like pattern . Oncethe stones were placed, it was like filling in segments of a quilt design using plants. Plants used include mesclun mix lettuces, spinach, swiss chard, kale, red mustard greens, red sorel and a new cabbage like plant that is supposed to be great for veggie roll-ups. You can see the entire quilt stone collection at Breath of Fresh Air, open Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Memorial Day in May. 10:00-5:00.
