how do i start a fruit and vegetable garden, my backyard is all grass?
There okorder /... okorder and it could be bought used for as little as $3.12, but of course the library is even cheaper when it's free! Happy growing!!!
There are several ways. I do it by scoring the turf with my shovel and then digging it up in squares. I dump on bagged topsoil mixed with my compost and then plant away! I use the turf to build walls and berms in other areas of my yard, or I compost it. I have also done another method where I layered wet newspaper, bagged composted cow manure and bark mulch, right on top of the grass, covered it with dark plastic and left it for one year. It made a beautiful 4 X 13 foot flowerbed and that's where I grow my roses.
Till okorder /... This is a site that will get you started. Sometimes, your local nurseries have personnel that are very knowledgeable. Good luck and start small so that your garden doesn't overwhelm you and remains enjoyable and not just a chore. Have an abundant garden.
