I can't believe I'm just now reading this article! The minute that I realized (back in mid February) that coronavirus would slow down food production/distribution and of course make it harder for me to take daily trips to the grocery store for fresh goodies depending on my mood, I decided it was time to start a garden. We are starting a deck garden to keep plants away from critters until we decide whether or not I have a green thumb. I have been surfing the web and asking farmer friends for MONTHS about starting a garden, but I could never find exactly what I was looking for. "How far apart do I plant veggies? What can be grown in the same bed/like toddlers, does anyone have to be separated? How much space do I need? What kind of soil do I use? Are there certain veggies I should by as seedlings instead of seeds?" This one article answered more of my questions at once than all of my research so far.
