Get Started Growing: 5 Easy Small Vegetable Garden Ideas To Try

If you’re thinking about starting a small vegetable garden but feel like a total newbie, here are some simple ideas to get you moving towards growing some vegetables on a small and manageable scale!

1) Go Vertical: Going vertical saves on space and is visually pleasing to the eye. Roeshel planted 12 different herbs in her beautiful Pallet Herb Garden (first photo) and Suzanne planted lettuce, radish, swiss chard beets and turnips in her nifty Gutter Garden that she mounted on the siding of her house!

2) Square Foot Gardening: The idea behind square foot gardening is to plant a variety of plants in a small amount of space. You’ll have to put a little bit of money into constructing the raised beds and filling them with soil, but once you put in the work, you can get consistent organic vegetables! There is tons information out there about square foot gardening; here’s an example of one from All New Square Foot Gardening.

Even if you don’t do a square foot garden, a raised garden has its benefits: it prevents grass from growing in your garden space, you get easier access to your plants, and there is no wasted space.

3) Container gardening: Another version of a raised garden is to grow vegetables in a container, or in wine crates!  use protective seal, a liner and brackets on the corner for the crates. These are great because they are portable and you can move them around as needed.

4) Inside gardening: If you don’t have any outdoor space and you don’t have any indoor space that gets sunlight, consider something like the Gardman R687 4-Tier Mini Greenhouse. It may be an option if you’re desperate for some indoor greens and can’t get any sunlight. Plus, it makes a beautiful display!
