The mow-less, grow-more plan for a beautiful, bountiful garden!

Put the fruits of your labors front and center!  With plentiful sun, open space, and an audience of appreciative passersby, the front yard has all the ingredients for a beautiful and bountiful garden.  Let famed blogger and garden designer Ivette Soler show you how to make over all or part of that space--too often simply unused or purely decorative--into a gorgeously designed oasis of fruits and vegetables that will be the envy of the neighborhood.  

The Edible Front Yard helps you combine the loveliest and tastiest edibles and ornamentals in a garden that is a year-round feast for the eyes.  Soler teaches all the tricks, from laying out the design and choosing the best front yard plants, to clear instruction for a bounty of exciting projects like a fragrant carpet of herbs, a trellis privacy screen using runner beans, and an eye-catching raised bed that turns the hellstrip into a little patch of paradise.  From the curb right up to your front door, the information in these pages includes everything you need to have a beautiful front yard and eat it too!
