Garden Plans > 2016: Barn Farm

About this Garden Plan

The Barn Farm. This is a plan for a garden to be planted Spring 2016. We will be planting a variety of vegetables, herbs, and native flowers to attract polinators to the garden. The soil is questionable so we are using a mix of raised beds and in ground beds. We would like to irrigate the garden using low volume dirp irrigation. This plan is part of my Temple University horticulture project.
