A vegetable garden is a garden that exists to grow vegetables and other plants useful for human consumption, as
opposed to a flower garden that exists for aesthetic purposes. It is a small-scale form of vegetable growing. A
vegetable garden typically includes a compost heap, and several plots or divded areas of land, intended to grow
one or two types of plants in each plot. Plots may also be divided into rows with an assortment of vegetables
grown in different rows. It is usually located to the back yard of the property.
Container gardening is also an option for portability or when there is limited space! Container gardening is the
practice of growing plants in containers, such as pots, tubs, or baskets, instead of in the
ground. It's a space-efficient and mobile way to garden, and it's suitable for many different plants.
You can start your own plants year-round in a sunny window, or try your own garden on your balcony or in your yard.
A garden zone, also known as a plant hardiness zone, is a geographic area with specific average minimum
temperatures.
These zones help gardeners determine which plants can survive in their area and when it's time to plant each
season.
