One of our favorite past times, is shopping for Antiques. A few years ago we were at the Pasadena Rose Bowl Flea Market and ran into Steve and Cindy. Michael knew Cindy from way back. We had just returned home from France, and they were just about to go. After their trip, we were called to help create a vegtable garden for one of their houses in La Canada, they loved it so much that they called us again, when they moved into their new house which is also in La Canada. Cindy and her mother, share a love of growing their own vegtables, so part of our mission was to create something that is easlily accessable to both Cindy and her Mother. Their new home is actually a gem of a home... a 1950's architects dream house. Steve who is an avid reader and knowledgeable about landscape architecture wanted to give his wife a vegtable garden, but having just moved into the house needed some time to get to know the garden as it is. We suggested to them, that we build 3 raised planters, that could be easily de-constructed after the master plan is finished. By using stacked blocks with rebar pounded deep into the ground, we created a strong, yet temporary garden that is ready to be used.
