RECLAIMED GRANITE VEGETABLE GARDEN

fairfield, ct

There’s a kind of poetry in using reclaimed materials. The weathered textures, irregular edges, and aged patinas bring character and a sense of history that new materials simply can’t replicate. Each piece tells its own story, and when combined thoughtfully, they create a space that feels grounded, lived-in, and timeless. That “perfect imperfection” adds warmth and authenticity that really elevates the entire landscape.

This vegetable and cut flower garden is designed for both beauty and productivity. It features a seasonal mix of fruit and vegetables such as peas, cucumbers, squash, beans, and leafy greens, paired with companion plants selected to enhance growth, suppress pests, and enrich the soil. Nasturtiums are interplanted to deter aphids and squash bugs, while calendula attracts pollinators and beneficial insects. Herbs like dill and parsley support pollinators and can improve the resilience of nearby crops. Annuals and native perennials are woven throughout to encourage biodiversity and create a dynamic, low-maintenance ecosystem that thrives naturally.
