018 - Planning Your Dream Garden

Starting with a clear plan for your new garden will save time and money in the long term.

Building a garden is really exciting and once we've made a decision to start growing, most of us are ready with all the tools and equipment we think we need.

But many people start adding soil and plants to gardens without actually planning where the garden should be located and what to grow, which can result in costly mistakes and hard work!

This episode is part of the 'Field Guide', soon to be published in the Soil to Supper Community and Part 1 in this podcast series.

In this episode I share the steps to take to plan your dream garden, including;

A planning checklist
Finding the sunshine
Natural elements
Your garden zones
Tips for creative planning
Discovering your dirt

By following these simple methods, you will effectively plan the garden of your dreams and be ready to start creating garden spaces!
