Vegetable Gardening - Free articles

A vegetable garden (also known as a vegetable patch or vegetable plot) is a garden that exists to grow vegetables and other plants useful for human consumption, in contrast to a flower garden that exists for aesthetic purposes. It is a small-scale form of vegetable growing. A vegetable garden typically includes a compost heap and several plots or divided areas of land, intended to grow one or two types of plant in each plot. Many famalies have home kitchen and vegetable gardens that they use to make food. In world war2, people had gardens called victory gardens which provided food for the war effort.

Container gardening is the practice of growing vegetables exclusively in containers or "pots", instead of planting them in the ground. This method of growing a vegetable garden is also useful in areas where the soil is unsuitable for the plant or crop in question. Limited growing space can also make this option appealing to the vegetable gardener.
