Located on 3/4 acres in the middle of town, Beckwith Gardens is Perth's first backyard market garden. Andrew and Linda Gehrke, a brother and sister team and market gardeners since 2005, relocated from 'the country' to town in 2009 in an effort to minimize their dependency on fossil fuels and reduce their footprint on the Earth. Their products are sold less than a kilometer down the street at the Perth Farmers' Market, as well as through CSA with pick-up at their house.
Beckwith Gardens offers a full range of non-certified organic seasonal vegetables, including heritage tomatoes, salad mixes, Swiss chard, kale, garlic, beans, peas, brassicas, herbs, root crops, associated sprouts and more. As well, Linda's delicious baked goods are not to be missed!
