Making your garden a source of joy and great food.
KGMV provides guidance and hands-on services for gardeners on Martha’s Vineyard.
Our 2025 schedule is open!
Whether you already have a garden or want to create a new edible landscape, we begin with a Garden Assessment consultation.
From there, you can enroll in Garden Care for tailored ongoing support.
I’m Faren, founder of KGMV, and my work is all about helping clients who want to grow food.

She has been gardening on Martha’s Vineyard since 2017. Her early professional experience in horticulture was on organic vegetable farm crews in northern Vermont and with landscapers in the Berkshires. She also has experience in outdoor education and green building, including several years working in affordable housing and renewable energy here on the island.
Faren cooks to relax and enjoys few things more than eating fresh food from the garden with her young family. She started Kitchen Gardens MV to make sharing that joy her job.
