About us

In 2019, we bought a little house on a typical 6,500 sqft lot in a busy PNW city. In the years that followed, we've transformed our ordinary lawn into an oasis of abundance, featuring native plants, fruit trees, berry bushes, a compact but bountiful vegetable garden, and even a backyard chicken coup.

Now, I'm sharing everything we've learned here at Godfrey Grove so more people can experience the joy of going from lawn to living landscape. Consider this website your field guide to backyard and urban homesteading.
