A young family in Lafayette, CA asked me to design a vegetable garden on property adjacent to theirs that they had just purchased. Rather than just do a small patch, I said lets do something really special. The first photo is looking north, the second looks west. Problems were a steep slope and of course, those pesky deer!
![]() Looking North
![]() Looking West
![]() Due to the steep slope we had to grade the area and add steps. The Sonoma Field wall is approximately 4' and the deer fence is 6'.
![]() Alex Gutierrez checks the construction of the wall. This 4' wall anchors the south and west side of the garden. The raised beds are starting in the garden area.
![]() Laying out the raised beds.
![]() The new entry from the main garden. We planted roses on each side of the arbor.
![]() The new steps, fence and walls completed!
![]() The finished product ready for the deer!
