About us
Not Very Secret Garden is a garden design business that focuses on bringing edible landscaping to the community. Based in Van Nuys, CA, our passion is creating beautiful outdoor spaces and transforming ordinary yards into culinary havens.
Our company’s mission statement is making fresh, nutritious, and delicious produce available and accessible to all through gardening. Whether you are looking to revamp an existing garden or create a brand new landscape, we offer personalized and innovative seasonal design solutions tailored to your unique preferences and needs.
Have you ever tasted a ripe tomato still warm from the sun, freshly picked and drizzled with a little olive and sprinkled with simply salt and pepper? The burst of flavor from garden produce outshines the pale comparison of vegetables that you can buy from the stores.
Many people don’t know where to start or think they don’t have a green thumb. That’s okay. We are here to guide you in your homesteading journey. If it’s a medley of potted plants, raised garden beds or an acre of land, we can work with any space no matter how big or small.
