Growing up I always provided a little garden space from my mom for me to grow things. As years have gone by and now I'm married, we have survived many times living off our garden. Someday I would love to own my own green house and teach people the benefits of... » more

After years of being on the waiting list, on 4 June 2011 I finally got a garden allotment (known as volkstuin in Dutch). It's just a 15-minute bike ride from home, at the back of an old Dutch dike - and has a little...

In the early spring the daffodils and tulips start to poke out of the ground...the 2 lilac bushes begin their blooms soon after. During mid-May, I begin to add veggie, herb, and annual plantings. Also, my parents bring...

Greetings from Herald, CA. Located just South East of Sacramento by 20 miles. Millions of grape vines cover the Herald landscape and vegetables grow well here with a good compost pile to nourish our Green Garden....

I have blueberries, blackberries, figs, loquats, apples, pears, pomegranates, asparagus, horseradish, vegetables, herbs, ornamentals.... and always trying something new.

We live less than a 1/4 mile outside of downtown Tucson in a rented house with a backyard garden of 250 sq ft. We plant over 60 varieties of vegetables and herbs every year mostly for personal consumption. We also have...

The success of our gardening has been great, with some disappointments due to the learning curve. We are learning what we can do when we have 4 months of temperatures over 100 and no rain. Our soil is all sand! We...

A community garden veggie patch, at the hands of an inexperienced city dweller! 

I live in the city and have a small amount of ground around my house where I can garden. My gardening style is relaxed. My garden just woke up and is going wild --so I'm about to snap to it and see what I can do...

It's been a bit of trial and error learning how to garden in the Phoenix desert, but I think I'm starting to get the hang of it! In addition to normal and raised beds, we have a small orchard with peach, apple, pomegranate...

My garden began with one raised bed.  I grew up in Ohio where you could pretty much stick a plant in the ground and it would grow.   I now live in Texas where the "soil"  is not soil.   Its clay.  I think they...

It is not a big veggie patch. Just a small piece of real estate that keeps us in Fresh vegetables and fruit come fall. This year I am trying to plant at least half the garden with heirloom plants and seeds

Our garden is a true extension of our desire to grow healthy food for our family and friends without the use of chemicals. And this year, NO GMO's! Wahoo!!!!

My garden started as an empty backyard lot, a blank canvas that has evolved into a lovely mix of edibles, ornamentals, my prized bearded iris, and lots of fruit trees. 

Our organically grown and maintained garden brings joy and bounty year round (even when it's buried in snow!).

I have 5 8x4 raised beds. I also have 3 in grounds beds and 8 blueberry bushes. I aim to plant only heirloom seeds. I also live on a corner lot in the city so I don't have too much space. I recently built a greenhouse...

It's only been a couple of years since I started gardening.  I enjoy planting different varieties of open pollinated and heirloom veggies.

I started this garden several yeas ago in a neglected alley in North-West Baltimore.  I had to sift the soil due to the broken glass, trash and hypodermic needles.  I've resorted to tub gardening due to the rat population....

Our garden has evolved slowly, as my daughters, my husband, and myself have explored and experimented with different planting strategies and cultivars.  Our home is on an 1/3 of an acre lot in East Lansing's Flower...

My vegetable garden is getting a makeover this year!  Not only will I be growing more heirlooms, but the area where they will be growing will have a Bohemian flair.....colorful, artsy, fun, and perhaps a bit of the...

My garden really began in the summer of 2011.  I had been reading about gardening organically and using heirlooms.  I was desperate to have some sort of control over what I was eatting and feeding to my family. ...

Timber raised beds. Using a modified square foot gardening approach.

Our current home came with a well established Haralson apple tree and healthy plantings of raspberries and rhubarb.  In 2011, we added two varieties of strawberries: Fort Laramie and Winona.

Im still in mostly planing stages other than a few vegys in my garden. We have an old apple tree and some walnut trees. Although we do have some wonderful Rodys that I love. I would really like to make my whole yard...

Our garden was planted in 2010 (and was much smaller then!). My son named the garden in 2012. The plan was to plant tall plants on the outside so he could "spy" out of it! The name has been quite apt as we are always...

This year we're going for quality, not quantity. I started six varieties of tomatoes, but only six of each (we'll see how that works out; so far none have sprouted)... also three types of eggplants, six of each, Some...
