Do you have a house with a garden? Why not add a vegetable garden or herb patch for your customers to enjoy?

1. Why offer a vegetable garden?

Offering your customers a vegetable garden is a plus for you. Indeed, eating well and local culture are increasingly valued. So if you offer your tenants the chance to help themselves to your delicious tomatoes this summer, they’ll be delighted! Out of season, you can also offer jams, tomato sauces or pickles, made with produce from your garden! It’ll make a real difference, we promise! If you have the time, you can create your own, using squash, tomatoes, strawberries, peppers, lettuce, etc. But if not, there are solutions for made-to-measure vegetable gardens!

2. No room?

Don’t have enough room for a proper vegetable garden? You can opt for an herb patch! Smaller, but just as enjoyable and fun for your customers, it means you’ll have plenty of herbs to cook with! You can plant :

  • Chives
  • Parsley
  • Thyme
  • Mint
  • Rosemary

To see it flourish, you’ll need to place it in a sunny, open, warm area. You can buy one ready-madeor make your own. If you’re tempted, here’s how:

  • Assemble 4 wooden planks measuring 1.20 m x 20 cm to form a square.
  • Add compost mixed with garden soil. If you have some, you can even add a little sand.
  • Using thick rope, form several squares according to the number of plants you wish to plant.
