Getting Started for Beginners

Soil Readiness

Choose the right bed and soil

Begin with raised boxes or in-ground beds using compost-rich soil. Aim for well-drained beds with a slight incline to prevent waterlogging.

Planting Basics

Start with easy veggies

Begin with tomatoes, peppers, beans, and leafy greens. Plant in succession to harvest over time and keep colors vibrant in your plot.
