Which vegetables do well in my local climate and season?

#1 · 6th April 2023, 8:29 am

Hello Everyone

I have recently moved to a new house with a huge lawn and I am planning to create a small vegetable garden on it. I have heard from a few friends that it can be easy to start your own veggie garden, so I wanted to try it out. However, I am not sure where to begin. Some people say that you need to plan the layout and size of your garden before doing anything else, while others suggest starting with soil preparation. I have also read that you need to choose the right types of vegetables for your local climate and season. With so much information out there, it can be difficult to know exactly what to do. Therefore, I am here to ask the experts for help!
