About This Site And How It Came To Be

Why this site

This site is here:

To bring together home edible landscape artists like you, provide a place to share your work, and showcase the truly excellent
To empower you to start growing your own beautiful, tasteful yard
To provide information about the thousands of gorgeous edible plants out there: how to grow them, how to eat them, and how to incorporate them into your edible landscape design
To promote companies that want to help you with your edible landscapes. They have taken a risk to specialize in this way in an uncertain economy, and I want to help them.
Most of all, I want to change the way growing food is viewed. A home edible landscape can be clean, healthy, and beautifully presented, and that's what this is all about.

While all others are welcome, this site is intended for the homeowner with at least a basic knowledge of gardening who wants to incorporate edible landscaping into their own property.

Although I have been organic gardening for over 20 years, I'm not an expert by any means. I have learned what I know about gardening and edible landscaping on my own, and I want to share it with you so that you can start right away!

By the way: There's no "CEO" or "advertising department" or anything like that. It's just me!

How did you make this site?

In October 2010, I took the Site Build It! online course, which gave me the information on how to create a successful online business and the tools to do so.
I used the online course, the tools, and the personal support and networking opportunities from the Site Build It! forums (which are worth the price in itself) to create this site.
I've been working on it just about every day ever since! It's a labor of love -- and I'm having a lot of fun doing it. :)
