Are you just getting started with vegetable gardening and looking for some ideas on how to plan your garden? A couple other horticulture agents and I have put together some simple garden plans that will get you started on your garden. These garden plans are all 4 ft x 8 ft gardens, ideally designed to be raised beds. However, raised beds aren’t necessary! If your garden space is bigger, you can simply use several of the garden templates end to end. (If you stack them side by side, you won’t be able to reach the middle!) The gardens are designed so you don’t have to walk in any of the planting areas. These garden plans are guidelines, so make them work for you! (Oh, and sorry about the sometimes-garish color combinations. I might get those fixed at some point.)
Two helpful resources to use with the garden plans:
Vegetable Garden Planting Guide
Recommended Vegetable Varieties
If all these garden plans don’t get you excited to get something planted, then I don’t know what will!
