Lyns' system

Lyn and Merv wanted a single bed system that they could 'potter around in', something small and neat. The courtyard system was ideal for them.

The system is capable of producing 20 plate sized fish twice a year and fresh salad greens and herbs.

Lyn and Merv wanted a vegetable garden that didn't require a lot of effort on their part. So Faye planted their growbed with plants that do not need to be replaced frequently.

Plants such as chives that can be cut back continuously; celery and lettuces that can be picked on an ongoing basis; and herbs that can be trimmed on occasion to encourage new growth.

Below are some pictures taken on the day of installation.
