| I've been an avid gardener for decades, but have never tried square foot gardening. I live in Northern Michigan (zone 5) and have some 4'x4' raised beds, so it sounds like I've got a good start. From what I've been reading on the web, SFG sounds like a great way to garden, if you've got a plan of attack...lol! So, does anyone have any recommendations of where I can find list(s) of what veggies/flowers to plant, and when? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Have a phenomenal day!

| I found the Michigan State University Extension website that has gardening information for your area and another site with a planting chart that you may find useful. I googled "Michigan vegetable planting guide" and there are several websites with information that you may be able to use. http://www.migarden.msu.edu/ http://www.squidoo.com/zone5 http://www.thevegetablegarden.info/resources/planting-schedules/zones- 5-6-planting-schedule I usually plant a week or two earlier than my local extension service recommends since raised beds warm faster. Happy gardening. |
