Edible landscaping and in-ground gardens have many similarities, but have a different approach when it comes to growing food in your yard. These differences are highlighted below:

| Focus | Incorporating edibles within existing structures, pathways, and garden areas | Creating a dedicated area just for vegetables to maximize garden yields |
| Scope | Includes vegetables, herbs, edible flowers, in addition to larger objects like fruit trees, bushes, arbours, and other larger objects | Generally limited to vegetables and herbs |
| Size | Anywhere from a small garden area to the entire yard | Typically smaller in size and set apart from other garden features |
| Plan | Considers traditional landscaping features such as aesthetic appeal, balancing colours and plant sizes, and long term design of the garden | Simple designs like rows or blocks of vegetables |
| Edibles available | All – vegetables, herbs, fruit bushes, fruit trees, nut trees | All – vegetables, herbs, fruit bushes, fruit trees, nut trees |
| Design Costs | $50 per hour to design the garden plan, estimated time varies based on size and scope of the project | Included at no extra cost for those contracting us to setup an in-ground garden |
