We visited Hidden Villa this week. It is in Los Altos Hills, in Northern California.
Being a city girl, I enjoy this kind of outing.
I love vegetable gardens. The one at Hidden Villa is just my style – large but unkempt, visually interesting and full of surprises. There are still remnants of last summer’s crop – some artichoke stems, pumpkins, a stray zucchini. Winter crops like carrots were safely underground, staying warm.
On the day of our visit, the air was damp from the previous day’s rain. I could smell the wet earth, wild sage, pine.
My favorite part, though was the scarecrows who were busy guarding the garden.
