Have you ever wanted to grow a large vegetable garden but don’t necessarily have a lot of land to work with? Most gardeners, (myself included) don’t know that you can grow a ton of veggies in a small amount of space using the Square Foot Gardening method.

This method is one of the easiest ways to grow an herb and vegetable garden in a raised bed. Square foot gardening is the practice of dividing the growing area into small square sections (typically 12″ on a side, hence the name).

The aim is to assist the planning and creating of small but intensively planted vegetable gardens. It results in a simple and orderly gardening system, from which it draws much of its appeal. Check out the tutorial and start a square foot garden this year. I don’t think you will be disappointed.
