SQUARE FOOT GARDEN INFORMATION

Perfect for introducing children to gardening, for those new to growing veg, and for gardeners

with limited space. Using a square foot garden, you can manage a small area for maximum

productivity.

The square foot garden is a raised bed that is divided into areas of one square foot. You plant a

single type of vegetable or flower into each section. The concept was started about 25 years ago

in the USA by Mel Bartholomew.

Our larger square foot gardens also have two or three deeper sections for veg, such as carrots,

that need additional soil depth. Taller plants are usually grown at the back and in the middle. The

sections are easily reached from the side, so the soil is never compacted.

Each section is planted with a different crop, and the seeds or seedlings are very closely spaced.

As soon as each crop is harvested, it is replaced by another.

The garden can be sited pretty much anywhere, even on a patio, balcony or concrete floor, but

ideally with a good southerly exposure.
