The good news is we can help you get a good start. For a first time grower, there are a few plants we would recommend starting with. These are your typical vegetables used in everyday cooking. With the following list of vegetables to start with, you can guarantee you will find a use for everything produced this growing season.
Go To Garden Seeds:
Now, this is a very basic list. If there is something you really enjoy eating, plant it! The most important part of starting a garden for the first time is to plant things you will actually use. There are a lot of fun plants out there. But it doesn’t do you much good to plant something you won’t use because you don’t really understand what it is.
To help you get the best start to your gardening journey we have gone through the effort of preparing some home garden kits guaranteed to produce something you will love!
Some kits have more variety depending on the amount of space you are using. Some of our favorites are the Granny’s Garden Heirloom and Instant Garden kits.
