Raised Bed Garden Plot Plan
What an amazing result for this first year garden! Functional and beautiful, this plan yielded over 3000 pounds of produce! Take a look at Lisa鈥檚 garden plan and photos.
Lisa Sangam and her husband are from Cupertino, California. Their first-year garden plan is truly impressive, mixing both vegetables and companion flowers. They have plans to expand it, growing even more with succession planting of crops.
Lisa鈥檚 Review of the Garden Planner
We are ecstatic with our first year. I had never gardened before and my husband had dabbled on a much smaller scale. We really wanted our backyard to be productive and full of life with hummingbirds, butterflies, bees, and birds. We got lots and lots of rewards with so many yummy vegetables that tasted so much better than the grocery store. And we reduced our bill by $250 for 2 months in a row! That was really cool to see documented and make happen. Next year, with better planning, we hope to do better, using succession planting. We also have a much better idea of things we need more of and things to have fewer of, so that we buy even less. We could not have done this without the Garden Planner. I just entered my yard measurements and we knew exactly how many beds we needed, the best things to plant by each other, and how many to plant in an area. I can鈥檛 tell you how instrumental that was for our first year. We wouldn鈥檛 have been as successful as we were. I am excited to start planning for next year! Thank you again for providing such a wonderful tool to use, and also for the enhancements I see from time to time when I log in.鈥濃擫isa Sangam
