Ballard P-patch is a community treasure. Children love to learn how plants grow from seeds, and when you can eat the result, it's even better!

The client wanted improved connections from her house to the garden. Multiple levels and slopes made unifying the area complex. It was challenging and fun to figure them out.

Wish I could return to this project to see how it has matured. I would love to take refuge in the garden shelter when it rained.
The clients wanted a sturdy structure for their daughter's reading hideaway, which can later become a vegetable
gardener's hideaway.
