Vegetable Garden Planning – Intensive Gardening Series Finale

I’ve been spending so much time planning our own garden this year, especially with all the seeds we’re starting indoors this year, that this post is a few days later than promised. Sorry about that. Trying to squeeze everything in our small yard does take some time and effort, but well worth it at harvest time and each year gets easier once you get the hang of it.

If you have followed along throughout the Intensive Gardening Series, you already know what types of things to consider when planning your garden. It may seem daunting, but hang in there – we’ll take it step by step.  I’ll go through the main areas of consideration and I’ll also introduce a tool to help in your planning as well. No matter how much you want to just get out and start growing stuff, you will create a greater yield by taking the time to plan your garden layout first.

Intensive Gardening Methods – A Learning Series for the Small Space Gardener

Do you want to get the most out of your small garden space? Do you plant only once the last frost date has passed and call it good?

If you really want to get the most out of your garden space and extend your growing season so you have fresh vegetables, fruit and herbs to eat throughout the year, then you need to use intensive gardening methods. Intensive gardening gives you a number of ways to achieve your goal of producing more produce for longer periods of time.

For the next several weeks, we will be posting a Learning Series on Intensive Gardening Methods starting with (1) succession gardening, followed by the (2) benefits of raised garden beds, (3) vertical gardening, (4) inter-planting or companion planting and, (5) finally, how to plan and utilize all the intensive garden techniques available to you so you can have the most glorious, productive garden possible.
