A Simple Home Garden Plan For Fresh Summer Diets
Frances La Shall outlines a compact 6 by 8 foot garden intended to supply vegetables for the season. A lettuce bed, two tomato plants, a parsley row, carrots, onions, turnips, three pepper plants, and herbs occupy a single border. A soap garden sized to be weeded in ten minutes each morning would keep moisture and nourishment steady while producing meals and fish accompaniments.
