No Room for a Vegetable Garden? Think Containers

Ah, late spring when gardeners all over the country are planning and/or planting their vegetable gardens in anticipation of the perfect tomato.

But what if you don’t have a large yard? If there isn’t enough room for even a four foot square plot or raised bed is that perfect tomato out of reach? Not at all. In fact, growing tomatoes in containers is one of the easiest yard-to-table things you can grow. Tomatoes enjoy large pots and will still need a cage for support but with good soil and sunlight that juicy, perfect beefsteak beauty can be yours.

Not that much of a tomato fan? Fear not! Peas are another great choice for early spring or even fall when the temperatures aren’t too intense. Other options include potatoes, squash, peppers, cucumbers, lettuce, and even radishes. Grow you own salad right there on your sunny patio. Don’t have a sunny patio?
