How We Prepare Our 1,700 Square Foot Community Garden
This week's video talks about how we prepare our 1,700 square foot community garden! We go through everything from removing the old plants, our general soil additions and also the practices we use for soil work and crop rotation.
This garden is super valuable to our northern growing strategy. It allows us to grow a ton of large plants, which produce a ton of food for us. While we do a little bit of fresh eating off of it, the overwhelming purpose is for short and long term preservation.
We grow a diverse number of brassicas (e.g. cauliflower, cabbage, broccoli, brussels sprouts, komatsuna and others) at this garden. This garden also supports our squash, which love to sprawl and take up a ton of space.
Shout out to any other FCG growers that see this, we look forward to growing with you again this year!
