We ended up dividing it into 4 sections. One section is all herbs, which I love!! I have sage, parsley, thyme, rosemary, basil, and...something else I am forgetting. 2 sections are for food. We grow strawberries (which I love and are so easy to take care of but might not produce fruit the first year and can kind of get out of hand if they aren't contained), tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans, carrots, butternut squash, acorn squash, and hot peppers. The tomatoes, squash, and peppers are all pretty easy to grow and have done well for us. Carrots and cucumbers have both done well once summer and not so well another summer. The last section I planted wild flowers in, a butterfly and hummingbird mix that was so fun. We had tons of both and it was so fun to watch them from the window. I love the garden but as I said it is big, much bigger than I would ever design myself. But we go get lots of great food, herbs, and flowers!Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11492653844259834476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6011488324145619643.post-74192904563306013042011-02-23T00:41:02.276-05:002011-02-23T00:41:02.276-05:00you might look into square-foot-gardening...

If I had a yard that's what I'd be trying my hand at this spring!Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03787546924066702065noreply@blogger.com
