square foot gardening

So, my buddy Bruce calls me the other day. We share gardening woes and triumphs. He recently stumbled upon a book All New Square Foot Gardening by Mel Bartholomew. Bruce's garden is growing in size this year. Last year, he put in his second bed, and the plan this year is to try Mel's techniques.


The Square Foot Gardening practice is interesting. I've not heard of plotting in squares before. Just co-mingling early, mid and late season plants to make the best use of the limited garden space.
