The slideshow above shows the one day transformation of a small backyard in Oakland, and the results only one month later.
Want to grow a significant portion of your family's produce at home, and add beauty and value to your home at the same time? Let Planting Justice come in and help you transform your yard into an abundant edible landscape and living classroom for you and your friends and family to learn permaculture techniques and bio-intensive organic gardening
Check out this video from one of our gardens to see the tangible, edible results of our work. This 1600 sq. foot garden was a lawn only 6 months ago, but since that time it has given around 1000 pounds of fresh produce, with nearly 300 pounds going to a local food bank!
By hiring Planting Justice to create a permaculture garden for you and your family, you are supporting this organization and this movement for local organic food, and helping Planting Justice provide green jobs for local youth that train them for a future in permaculture design and urban farming.
First, we'll create a customized permaculture design that maximizes beauty, food production, and efficient use of your space. See a sampling of past designs here.
We'll then come in with our team and install the garden. We'll mentor you throughout the first year so you can learn as much as possible throughout the process.
When you decide it is time to turn your yard into a food forest, we are ready for you. Planting Justice is working around the clock to transform lawns in Berkeley and Oakland into high performing edible landscapes. Just look at how dramatic the transformation can be!
If you're ready, fill out this form below and give us as much information you can about your place. We offer a free in-home consultation to assess just how much food can be grown in your yard. Our rates are competitive with regular landscaping services, but the results are more than just beautiful, they are edible!
