CHOOSE THE RIGHT SPACE

Which vegetables suit your light?

Partial shade can support some edible crops, but fruiting vegetables usually need a sunnier spot. Measure the light before choosing plants.

PLAN THE SEASON

Plant when the conditions are right.

Climate averages provide context, not a guaranteed planting day. Check the crop, weather and your own growing space.
