E12: Planning Your 2023 Garden: A Year’s Worth of Food | Ann Accetta-Scott of A Farm Girl in the Making

Ann has been homesteading for nearly a decade now, and she places a particular emphasis on growing as much of her family’s food as possible. In fact, she estimates that they produce around 80% of their own food on their Tennessee homestead.

In our conversation, we discuss what it looks like to plan and grow a year’s worth of food for your family. We talk about adapting to your climate, evaluating your family’s unique needs, optimizing the harvest, and more. Grab your garden planner and pen, and join us for this episode!

In this episode, we cover:

  • Considerations for gardening in various climates
  • The surprising benefit of gardening in clay soil
  • Choosing what to grow based on your climate
  • Arranging your garden spatially
  • How to factor crop yield and pantry inventory
  • Optimizing your harvest through succession planting and preserving
  • The importance of documenting the details of your garden
  • Why planning ahead makes all the difference in your garden
  • Tailoring your garden to your unique family
  • How less might actually be more in the garden
