[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hello fellow gardeners, My wife and I are moving from out of state, and are looking to buy a home within a twenty minute commute of Burke, VA. We both love to have lots of edible plants growing around our home - ranging from attractive grape arbors and herb gardens to large fruit trees and berry bushes. We are planning to hire a Landscape architect with a certificate in permaculture to design our edible landscaping, so that it is aesthetically appealing, but we're concerned that some of the HOAs will have a hissy fit about how our yard won't look like everyone else's grass money pit. (We will be drastically shrinking the amount of traditional grass lawn on our property, and may need to have the slightly less attractive vegetable garden in view of the street to maximize sunlight.) What neighborhoods or streets would you recommend? We can afford up to $1.1M, but would prefer to purchase in the $450K to $700K range. Thanks for any thoughts you can provide![/quote] First you insulated everyone by bad mouthing our wonderful grassy lawn Second, there are laws that preventing crop growing and fruit / vegetables beyond a certain coverage. Just pick an area without an HOA and you should be fine. [/quote]
