Thank you Danger Garden for this feature on our "Farm AT Table" display. <br /><br />As the designer and creator of the garden display space and its table, fire, benches, it is wonderful to read the comments (and frank) feedback. <br />Yep! A rill to chill bevies and evocative of the irrigation trenches roadside. <br />Yep! Honeycomb benches inspired by the apiaries one sees out in the fields ('cause we need our bees!). <br />Yep! A "Fire Box" like grandma and grandpa Kirk used on the farm. <br />Yep! A table of ordinary parts and pieces carefully constructed so that you (yes, you) might harvest right to your plate or drink in plant delights (as well as garden at an ADA accessible table). <br /><br />My design and outreach work re: restorative gardens & power of plants is trial by... fire and I'm delighted to read of the response. Thank you. In collaborating with Baumans and Autumn Leaf Landscaping (contractor), I had hoped to allow everyday materials to sing, plants to shine, senses to be stirred, and bring y'all 'round the table. Hope you enjoy.

I agree red plates are better than no plates and really in person it didn't even occur to me, it was only later when looking at the photos and I almost couldn't see the plants for the plates. <br /><br />Please don't stop collecting succulents, you've got a great affordable collection. And new plants from Annie's...yay!<br /><br />Nancy, I agree it was hard to leave without buying anything...and it was only because I've bought so much from them in the past I guess that I was able to leave without pulling out my wallet.danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-74585353700627214052012-08-07T12:45:45.365-07:002012-08-07T12:45:45.365-07:00Oh don't complain...just admit your bank accou...Oh don't complain...just admit your bank account will never be the same!danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-79022335485550715872012-08-07T12:45:13.022-07:002012-08-07T12:45:13.022-07:00Actually I really like both of your ideas Hoov!Actually I really like both of your ideas Hoov!danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-33337670278047334842012-08-07T12:44:33.184-07:002012-08-07T12:44:33.184-07:00You haven't been Grace?

Okay so the plates I stole from my Mom's House (see loves red fiesta wear) and probably should get new ones but I just thought the table needed set. <br /><br />The fern is a blue star fern. One of our absolute favorites! Makes a great indoor plant or awesome summer outdoor basket.<br /><br />I have been collecting succulents for years and can't help myself. Last winter I made a trip to Annie's Annuals and found a whole new supple of awesome plants, which we will be having available soon.<br /><br />On the same trip I got inspired at Flora Grubb, how did you know??<br /><br />Thanks again for all the nice comments.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-91875630304306492542012-08-06T08:52:09.610-07:002012-08-06T08:52:09.610-07:00WOW!
