This black bear's front yard edible garden is Thornton Creek, near Ucluelet on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The creek is near a fish hatchery. He is a lucky bear!

When the back yard is not adequate, a growing number of urban residents create front yard vegetable gardens, or they plant vegetables in the back lane. Documented here are endeavors, small and larger, to plant vegetables and fruits in front yards, lanes, and other unexpected places in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada and beyond.

What a moment that must have been AND you had a camera! Your photo makes me wish I had been there with a fly rod. What is it they would say about this bear's real estate? Location, location, location.
