Square foot gardening is one of the latest trends in growing your own food. Creating a sustainable garden is not only eco friendly but also very healthy. Sadly, not everyone has enough space to grow all the great fruits and veggies we love so much. Square foot gardening changes all that because it makes the growing area compact and easy to care for because the plants take up a smaller amount of yard space. Square foot gardening is also great for those who want to begin growing their own fruits and vegetables but want to start small.
