A Woodlands Kitchen

A backyard in The Woodlands organized as two rooms rather than one lawn. A pergola terrace anchors the gathering side; a run of raised cedar beds and gravel paths anchors the growing side — laid out for a family who makes salsa from what the garden produces. English cottage softness over a Texas-durable frame. A birdbath on the kitchen sightline, so the garden is present even when you're not in it.
