In edible landscaping, you incorporate fruit, vegetable and herb plants into your garden — all while adhering to the design principles of sustainability and aesthetics. This innovative approach to gardening allows you to create a functional and beautiful outdoor space that not only enhances the visual appeal of your home but also provides you with a bountiful harvest of fresh, organic produce.
The solution, Arthur says, is found in edible landscaping, or “foodscaping.” The concept is fairly simple. The core of the practice is simply integrating food-producing plants into your landscape design, blending them seamlessly with ornamental plants to create a visually appealing and productive garden. By incorporating edible plants such as tomatoes, lettuce, strawberries, and herbs into your landscaping, you can enjoy the beauty of your garden while also reaping the benefits of homegrown, organic food.
