Garden Plans > 2013: April-October

About this Garden Plan

Our 30'x90' vegetable garden is primarily for home use but also functions as a small market garden, providing tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, green beans, peppers and herbs to the local community through our Saturday Market. (We have a second 20'x30' plot wherein we plant our home-use corn and winter squash and pumpkins.) The beds in our primary plot are slightly raised, reinforced by 1x4s and 1x6s leftover from construction projects; not intended for longterm use, they are giving us a feel for raised bed gardening and whether or not we wish to invest time/effort in materials necessary for extended use. Happy gardening!
