Join us at our General Meeting on March 13th where Ashley Irene will speak on the topic “The Art of Edible Potager.”
Ashley Irene is a member of the Garden Coach Society and a certified garden designer, but her style is also inspired by her grandparents. Irene grew up on her grandparent’s farm in central Wisconsin and has always had a love of farming. She was a fashion design major, giving her an eye for design, that later came in handy in creating her own gardens. She later earned her MBA and served as a brand consultant until COVID hit when she began her company Heirloom Potager. Irene’s showcase kitchen garden situated in front of her 1920’s French Tudor home in Floral Park in Santa Ana that she shares with her husband Nathan, has inspired many neighbors to reach out to her about starting their own gardens.
Potager, a French word for home kitchen garden, is where the inspiration for Ashley’s company came from, it was the springboard for her company, Heirloom Potager. Her client list runs the gamut from award winning chef’s and mixologists, to the most discerning developers, curators and homeowners, her company creates timeless edible gardens and landscapes in Southern California and beyond. Her work has been featured in Orange Coast at Home, Orange County Business Journal, Riviera Magazine, and the Orange County Register.
