This stunning, flowering artichoke is very California! No? |
I was struck by two things: The garden area was open and welcoming to the public, but each plot (maybe 8'x12' in size) was enclosed in a knee-high fence of hardware cloth. A great idea to keep the bunnies at bay.
I was also impressed at the diversity of the gardens. Some were very utilitarian veggie production sites, but most of them showed individual character and featured both edibles and flowers.

A fun take on "square foot" gardening. |
Three cheers for the gardeners of Santa Clarita for making the most of their community gardens.
