Garden Plans > 2011: SFG Beds

About this Garden Plan

This is my raised bed garden which is actually a little under half of my garden. I also have a traditional garden next to this one, where I'm growing corn, potatoes, and zuchinni. My raspberry canes have been allowed to take over part of that space as well. My perennials are next to that garden: strawberries, raspberries, and my yet to produce asparagus and rhubarb. I plan to put in a pumpkin patch, next.
