xenial Sunny Point garden


Come on in!  Enter the delightful organic garden of Sunny Point Cafe in West Asheville, North Carolina!
"We celebrate the relationship between the kitchen and the garden…where food grows from a tiny seed and meets the knives of creative chefs, all within an acre…from spade to spoon."


 Nestled within the garden are tables for gathering and play areas for kids.  In the foreground grows tall dinosaur kale.

Raised beds are full of herbs and vegetables.  There are even planters on the fences.


Situated in a residential area, neighborhood houses surround the gardens and cafe.












spoon and fork sculptures growing within the dandelion bed!


aah...so xenial!

 













Therefore,

 Do you know what xenial means now?! *

    Does Xenial mean water-saving? I love the garden sculptures made of forks and spoons - how creative.

    What a wonderful place! It is so inspiring seeing a restaurant or cafe grow their own veggies and herbs. I love those spoon and fork sculptures!
