Backyard Bounty Services

Kitchen Gardens

Nothing tastes better or is better for you than fresh, local food. Background Bounty provides everything you need to grow a bounty of produce at your door step.

We use quality, lasting materials that are made in America, seeds, plants and soils approved for organic agriculture, and always garden using the most effective organic methods.

We create careful designs with garden plans that contain the right mix of vegetables, flowers and herbs to attract pollinators to your garden and beneficial bugs who eat pests like aphids. We organize your planting so that you get a successive harvest of crops, and the garden stays neat and attractive.

We offer semi-custom raised bed packages, as well as custom designed kitchen gardens so that you can come home to an instant vegetable garden, complete with a watering and pest protection kit.

Ready To Grow: Let us build an instant garden on your deck or in your yard. These semi-custom , raised bed gardens are installed complete for just a little more than it would cost you to build one on your own. Plus, they come with all the support that you need to grow your food successfully. Read more about our “READY TO GROW” packages .

Custom Kitchen Gardens: Let us design an edible landscape for your yard that includes berries and fruits, herbs and flowers, and vegetables arranged ornamentally. A custom kitchen garden can be a beautiful space that will meet the demands of home-owner associations and provide you with delicious, organic food over the course of 3 seasons.
