While visiting northwestern New Jersey, I came across a really lovely "Chef's Garden" where the garden supplying the food is literally within arms reach of the outdoor restaurant (well, sort-of outdoors; no walls at least).
The mixture of lettuces, cabbages, flowers, tomatoes, peppers, etc. made for one of the most pretty and relaxing gardens you could ever want to walk through. The fact that so much of it was edible made it all the better!
