ChattaChris's Front Yard Vegetable garden

Garden Type: Vegetable | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Clay I'm Organic!

I’ve heard many people say growing food in your front yard is a bit of a subversive act. I have to admit, I’ve been shy about it, but I’m getting more and more bold every time I move or remove a boring foundation shrub or pick and eat tasty veggies.

    Your garden is beautiful. Good for you for growing veggies in your front yard. My neighbors would have a fit. They call the home owners association and complain about me when my lawn gets 1/4-inch too long!

    Yay! Another front yard gardener. I lived up in North Chattanooga for years and I know how it can be. Now I’m down in Ringgold and can show the neighbors how it’s really done. Great looking garden!
