Just starting out with gardening? Planning a productive vegetable garden is a lot easier than you imagine. Just remember to start small with your first garden. Even if you have a huge backyard and dream of growing food for family and friends, start off small. Starting small allows you to get the feel of it, to see what grows and what doesn’t, and it can save you some sanity! I’d recommend keeping your first vegetable garden at 100 square feet or less. Using the right techniques, you can grow a surprising amount of food in a garden that size.
