A First Vegetable Patch That Actually Crops
Turn a small patch or a row of pots into a garden that feeds you — soil, timing, watering and the four crops that forgive beginners.

What you will be able to do
- A patch plan with measured sun hours and a soil fix
- Four forgiving crops chosen for your conditions
- A deep-watering and mulching routine that halves the work
- A harvest-and-reset habit that keeps the bed productive
Most first gardens fail quietly: the spot gets too little sun, the soil is clay, the seedlings are crowded and watered a little every day. This course removes those four failure points, then carries you through planting, mulching and harvesting so the same bed keeps producing instead of being reset to bare earth each spring.
