Gardens in Harvest Green

The Fort Bend master-planned community of Harvest Green has cultivated a partnership with Enchanted Nurseries & Landscapes of Richmond to install the community’s backyard, ready-to-grow vegetable gardens, a unique feature of Houston’s first farm-and-garden focused community.

            Harvest Green families who choose to have a raised vegetable garden installed in their backyards will select from three, cedar-planked designs. Homebuyers can purchase the backyard vegetable gardens directly from Harvest Green’s builders.

            Residents can choose from an L-shape, rectangle-shape or two-tier design with a lower level for herbs encircling a raised tier for vegetables and taller plants. Plus, each design is installed two feet off the ground to minimize the strain of bending while tending to plants.

            Enchanted Gardens will install each backyard garden, fill them with dirt and supply participating homeowners with a voucher good for seeds for fresh herbs and vegetables.   Its staff also will suggest the best items to plant as well as instructions for care.

            “Enchanted Gardens has inspired families for three generations by demonstrating a special passion for gardening,” notes Harvest Green General Manager Shay Shafie. “We’re excited about the opportunity to bring the special Enchanted Gardens experience to every Harvest Green backyard.”

            Harvest Green’s impressive collection of luxury home builders includes D.R. Horton, Darling Homes, David Weekley Homes, Highland Homes, Lennar, MHI Homes, Meritage Homes, Newmark Homes, Perry Homes, Trendmaker Homes and Westin Homes.

            Sales in the 1,300-acre master-planned community by The Johnson Development Corp. will begin later this summer when home styles and pricing are announced. Model homes are scheduled to open in the fall.

            Besides its focus on farming and fresh produce, Harvest Green’s location at the Grand Parkway and West Airport is expected to be a big draw for those seeking new homes accessible to Houston’s Energy Corridor, Sugar Land and Fort Bend County.

            “Harvest Green is the perfect combination of an innovative and inspiring community with the ideal location for today’s busy families,” Shafie adds.
