Grown out of ♥ for people + planet
If you love great food, spending time outdoors, and don’t mind a little dirt under your fingernails, then you should feel at home here.
Hi 👋 I’m Ashley Irene, the Heirloom Potager.
Culinary Garden Designer + Coach + Soil Advocate
And I’m so glad you’ve come to visit my little potager garden in the city.
I am passionate about gardening and an advocate for the #growlocal movement. This site is designed to be a helpful guide to turn your outdoor space into a flourishing seasonal kitchen garden. My gardening style is a blend of form and function, inspired by the bountiful rustic gardens of Europe. Read how I’ve been training to be a gardener my whole life (and didn’t realize it!).
As a certified Garden Designer, I have a wealth of training to help clients create a garden that matches their style, experience, and #gardengoals. Most importantly, I believe everyone has the ability to cultivate their own potager, a space to grow nutritious seasonal fruit, vegetables, herbs and (edible) flowers in one practical and beautiful place!
Heirloom Potager offers culinary garden design and coaching to seasoned and aspiring gardeners in Orange County and Los Angeles, California. From container planting to full-yard transformations, we can help you create the kitchen garden of your dreams.
