Eco-chic Outdoor Living & Exterior Design
"My gardens, my passion and I will show it how it easy it is for you to live and eco-chic and sustainable lifestyle in your own backyard..."
Senga Lindsay, Senga Landscape Architecture Inc.
Starting January 1, 2010 I will take you through the 'Garden of Eaten/Eden" - a 'Year in the Life of a Sustainable Garden' using my personal garden and show you how you can create beautiful outdoor spaces for entertaining that can provide an abundance of food from our edible green roof, bee hives, egg laying 'chooks' and recipes on how to prepare it with my husband chef and other award winning chefs from B.C.
For more tips check out my other blog at Gardenwise Magazine & my designer article series.
