edible gardens la

There’s nothing sweeter than casually strolling outside to pull a fresh tomato from the vine, snap a few zucchinis of their stems, dig up a cute little carrot or two — then walk right back into your home kitchen to prepare them. Living in the city, we find ourselves constantly craving farm-to-table eats. It can be hard to even imagine bringing our edible garden dreams to life, and that is exactly why gardening guru Lauri Kranz is in such high demand.

The visionary entrepreneur with a serious green thumb is responsible for some of the prettiest and most functional edible gardens around town, from Beverly Hills to Sullivan Canyon and plenty of neighborhoods in between. Her ability to turn even the smallest space into a fertile bed of delicious produce keeps her services in high demand.
