Gardens
Backyard Kitchen Garden
219 E. 4th St - Lansdale
This productive backyard kitchen garden combines raised beds filled with vegetables, herbs, and seasonal flowers. Designed to maximize a small space, the garden provides fresh harvests throughout the growing season while supporting pollinators and local wildlife. What started as a few garden beds has become a place to grow food, experiment, learn, and connect with nature.
Everbloom

Our yard has flowerbeds of sun and shade, with an emphasis on an array of perennials. This is a multi-season garden so there is never one "peak" season, but beauty all year round. Also featuring a calming water feature and multiple conversation areas for hosting in any weather! Come stay a while!
Idle-while
10 E. 7th St - Lansdale
Retreat from the hustle and bustle of life in a busy town on a busy street in this hidden backyard oasis. Browse the slightly untamed charm of a hodgepodge of perennials, annuals, winding walks, trickling water and whimsical accents. Sit and chat for a while and enjoy some refreshments with us!
Love Letter to the Wild Side
534 Derstine Ave - Lansdale
My garden is a love letter to the wild side. We feed the squirrels and birds and we try to plant native. We even have a pond! It's not manicured but it is loved. Someday we might actually be rid of the lemon balm.
Magnolia Junction
235 S 9th St - North Wales
Our yard is about 1/5 of an acre, shaped like a long narrow rectangle and enclosed at the end by a shady magnolia and ash tree. We grow a variety of vegetables and flowers each year, along with blackberries and a few different types of fruit trees, including paw paws, apples, peaches, plums, persimmons, a hazelnut, and a few other little shrubs and perennials that make us happy and give us food. Everything we do is clean and organic, and much of it is self-directed/chaos gardening designed to encourage pollinators and birds.
