Garden Plans > 2021: Total side garden

About this Garden Plan

This is my first attempt to lay out next years garden. It will be on the south side of our house. I have multiple sites that I plant. I have multiple raised beds in different areas around our home. I have a specific strawberry patch and a what will be a newly planted garlic patch. I started out with a kitchen garden consisting of tomatoes and herbs two years ago. In 2020 I expanded the garden to include 2 small 4x4 raised beds and a small area surrounding our flag pole. I attempted to grow corn which didn't work out too well, but I learned a lot. I grew zucchini and and pole and bush beans, peppers, radishes and lettuce. Broccoli and cauliflower also were a bust. Potatoes turned out great. I continue to learn and can't wait until next planting season.
