Raised Vegetable Garden Layout Ideas
Raised beds—simple rectangular wooden frames 8-10 inches tall—are the preferred way to grow a vegetable garden. Soil in raised beds warms quickly in spring, lengthening the growing season, and can be filled with high quality topsoil. Raised beds should be accessible from all sides and no more than 4 feet wide so all parts of it can be reached from the perimeter. Design your vegetable garden layout so plants get progressively taller from the south edge to the north.
Small Vegetable Garden Layout Ideas
If you're working with a small space, there are easy plant combinations that you'll enjoy harvesting. Try these ideas:

Salsa garden: chives, cilantro, tomatillos, hot peppers
Corn salad garden: bell peppers, sweet corn, purple basil
