Having a vegetable garden is a great way to grow fresh herbs and veggies that taste great during the summer months. With a bit of careful planning, you can enjoy your garden and spend less time weeding and watering. Here are some tips that will make your garden one that you will truly enjoy having.
- Plant your garden in a convenient location. This will make it easier to reach and care for.
- Create special areas within the garden for storing mulch, tools, and the things you will need to maintain it.
- Make sure that you have a water source nearby and that it will be easy to irrigate your garden.
- Before you put your first seeds in the ground, make sure the garden is level. This will help control erosion and make it easy to weed throughout the growing season.
Ideally, you’ll want to place your garden so that it emerges from the landscape and doesn’t stand apart from it. Integrating a garden in such a fashion is always a wise landscaping decision.
