Starting a Berry Garden

14 years ago

Hi! I'm 15 and I'm very new to the gardening hobby! My mom ad I want to start a berry garden, like raspberries, blueberries, grapes, and possibly more! Although, I'm not very sure where to start, like where should I put the the garden? And how should I place them? And when should I do it? Since it's summer, I have time to take as much care for this garden as I can! Please help, and give me as much advice as you can! Thank so much!
