So you ordered all your seeds and want to start planning your garden? Take a look at how we planned our garden this year!
First, we took inventory of everything we plan to grow this year and researched when we should start seeds. We also looked at whether they needed to be started indoors or outdoors and planting by the moon. We went to this website and entered our zip code which gave us our gardening zone (5A) and showed us when the best time to plant based on last frost dates and the lunar cycle. Then we created the chart below based on what we are growing. This is a great tool to help you plan your garden!
We also did a lot of research on companion planting and square foot gardening to come up with our rough garden plan. More on that on our next post!
