Daily News | A new way of vegetable gardening, with someone else’s hands in the dirt
A Philly company appeals to perfectionists, foodies, people who are nostalgic about the gardens their grandparents grew, and those with money but no time.
Dommes, 33, was preparing for the season — but not by cobbling together a raised bed or buying cucumber seeds at the hardware store. Instead, Dommes had scheduled a consultation with, a young Philly company that helps people build, plant, maintain, and even harvest home vegetable gardens. Your grandfather’s kitchen garden this is not. The wooden raised beds are absolutely level. Thin black irrigation tubes run through dirt rows like at a tiny industrial farm. QR codes for each seedling detail when and how to harvest. For an added fee, customers can sign up for experts to pluck the finished product, which more than half opt to do.
Most community gardens focus on public spaces and most landscaping companies don’t specialize in “edibles,” as vegetables are called in the gardening world. That’s where Backyard Eats comes in.
