Now that you know how much space you need, you need to find an area that can accommodate that amount of space.
Now that you know how much space you need, you need to find an area that can accommodate that amount of space. It's important to remember that your vegetables won’t lay flat, the way they look on your plan. They will grow up on fences or trellises and may block an important view. Your site should be in full sun or at minimum 8 hours of direct sunshine for most crops. Your soil should be at minimum 6” deep and preferably 10” or more. If you don’t have this soil depth because of rock, root, or other obstruction then you will need to “raise” the soil by adding soil and containing the sides with some kind of edging. These are referred to as raised beds. Raised beds can be completely above ground in pre-made planters.
