A good location is fairly close to the house and within reach of the garden hose. It has good drainage, but it is not excessively steep. It gets about 10 hours of sunlight in midsummer and there is little competition for water and nutrients from trees, hedges or shrubs. Children and pets usually do not play too close to this location.
Some additional planning that will prove enjoyable and rewarding:
• Get you soil tested and find a good source for premium compost
• Choose what to plant
• Decide how, when, and where to place your seeds or plants
• Set up a plan for companion and succession planting.
Winter is a great time to start planning.
