Graygarden

Graygarden is a location and a possible settlement in the Commonwealth in 2287.

Background
Staffed by a fleet of Mister Handy robots, and led by the three color-coded supervisors by the name of White, Brown, and Greene, Graygarden is a bountiful greenhouse for the Commonwealth.

It was founded before the Great War by Dr. Edward Gray. Here the Sole Survivor can trade with Supervisor Greene, start the quest Troubled Waters by speaking to Supervisor White, while Supervisor Brown will reward the player character for returning crop samples from the wasteland, which will cause the Graygarden workers to begin cultivating those crops as well as their original crops.

Layout
Just outside the greenhouse is a large field of mutfruit which are tended to by a couple of Mr. Handies and inside are several planters filled with corn, carrots, gourds, tatos and additional mutfruit.

Due west of the main facility is two buildings. The first is a small garage with assorted junk components and a toolbox. The western building, Graygarden homestead, is a two-story house with an Expert locked basement containing a chemistry station, assorted glassware and a pulse mine. The kitchen has collapsed and is inaccessible from within the homestead.

The overpass above can be built upon, but there is no existing way to access it from the Graygarden settlement.

Inhabitants

 * Supervisor Brown
 * Supervisor Greene
 * Supervisor White
 * Three Mister Handies

Notable loot

 * To the east there is a crashed vertibird on the upper level of the highway with some ammo boxes beneath the overpass. A bit further east, near the next highway support pylon, is a window washer style elevator that lifts to the upper level. Walk back towards Graygarden to find a suit of power armor.

Appearances
Graygarden appears only in Fallout 4.

Behind the scenes

 * Graygarden's location is roughly analogous to the real-world towns of Waltham and Watertown. The two major agricultural sites in these towns are the public farming co-op at Bentley University's now-defunct School of Agriculture and the privately-owned farm at Gore Place.
 * The character of Supervisor White is derived from the US TV show Green Acres (1965-1971). Supervisor White's accent and characteristic use of "darling" and the like is similar to that used by Eva Gabor in the show. This was evidently the show on which her creator, Dr. Edward Gray, based her unique personality.
 * Graygarden could also be a reference to the estate that Jackie Kennedy Onassis' cousin lived on with her ageing mother throughout the 1970s. The pair constantly reminisced about their life as part of the 1950s social elite in the exposé documentary, "Grey Gardens", about their appaling living conditions. Supervisor White also shares some similarities with the two women in the documentary, Big Edie and Little Edie.
