hi! we bought all our arches at Smith Hawken in costa mesa, but that location went out of business. You can still buy the arches at their online store. We just LOVE their arches! have fun!

Hi Todd & Diane,
My family has recently bought a house, and we’re in the process of cosmeticizing the yards. The first place I go to for inspirations is your garden! (I’ve already seen this post back in ’08.) I’m currently looking for metal garden arches, like the ones you have in your garden, particularly an extra wide arch. Would please let me know where you got yours? I live in SoCal also.
Thanks much!

Good luck with your garden plans. Most of our plants come from a lot of different local nurseries, local gardeners, or grocery store cuttings of herbs. We’ve explored nurseries from San Diego to Santa Barbara. We’ve yet to find a nursery we didn’t like, no matter how simple, but each offers something slightly different so it just depends what you are looking for and what time of year it is. More often than not, it is a hidden discovery at a nursery, even occasionally the garden sections at home improvement stores, where we will find something we love. Same with seeds. Kitwana seeds are great for many asian vegetables, but the rest have been a huge medley of companies. Try, explore, and try again until you find what you love the most.

We’re planning on starting our garden soon and I just loved watching your video. I am so inspired to expand our originally planned garden of lemons, tomatoes and basil into more varieties of veggies and fruits. I’m curious to where you got your plants/seeads? Could you recommend a reputable nursery? Have you purchased anything online? Hmm not sure if you’ll respond since this video is 2 yrs old. Anywhoo, I’d love to hear from you. Thanks for the inspiration!

I’m only about a year and half too late for your garden party, but I just had to comment on the great video! Amazing what you’ve done with all that empty space. I am inspired. Thanks so much for sharing a little bit of your home with us.

Very nice garden, thanks for sharing. I’m sure you inspire a lot of people into making their backyards more edible. I have a 1 yr. old manila mango given to me for father’s day and it had a nice starter growth so far. Hope it will fruit also. Will keep watching your videos.

I’m in NY and this video makes me want to pack up and move to CA. I’ve sent it to my husband already with subject heading: can we move to CA?
