Welcome to the Official Fan Site for John and Greg's Garden. You're starting with us on the ground floor. Stay tuned because this is going to be one sweet piece of Earth. The plan is for this garden to feed our stomachs (tomatoes, peas, herbs, lettuce, etc.) and our souls (loads of beautiful things to look at), and provide a nice place to have a cocktail.

Lawn Dig



March 7-8. Lawn Dig. We'd been pretty sure the lawn had to go. Greg pushed for a sod cutter, and we drove out to the Home Depot in Burbank to rent one. It weighed about 500 lbs, and there was no way it was going in the back of my Subaru. So I dug up the above with a shovel.



Local doves dropped by the next morning to inspect and laud my toil.



Greg planting tomatoes. On the left is our Arabian Jasmine vine. It hasn't been happy East-facing where it was supposed to grow over a pergola. We're now hoping it will be happier on a South-facing wall.
