Backyard Vegetable Garden Design

The backyard garden is a popular idea for growing vegetables. If you do not have much fertile soil in the backyard, you can use planter from reclaimed objects, such as a pallet or wooden boxes.

The raised vegetable garden is also a good idea, especially if you have a lot of needs for fresh vegetables.

Vertical Vegetable Garden Design

The vertical vegetable garden is a great idea for small space. If you live in small house or apartment, for example, you can use the terrace, patio, or even balcony as a vertical garden.

Simply combine pots, hanging baskets, trellis, and shelves for more efficient space-using. However, make sure your garden is still close to a water source.

Do not worry; you still have a lot of plant options for a vertical garden. From climbing varieties, there are squashes, tomatoes, green beans, lima beans, and peas.

You can use pots to plant popular vegetables and spices, such as chili peppers, lettuces, radishes, onions, and herbs.

Modern Vegetable Garden Design

Do you love “clean” look but with striking visual? Try modern vegetable garden design. The image of the vegetable garden is usually very rustic, but you can create “clean design” with planters or boxes. One trend in striking visual is making tiered planters with different heights.

You can also create planters from bricks or rocks, and place them in several strategic spots in your yard. Connect the planters with garden pathways to create balance. It is a great way to create a landscape with vegetable gardens.

Vegetable Garden Bed Design with Creative Materials

Another way to create a distinctive vegetable garden is with creative materials. A raised bed is common for the garden, but if you use a unique material, it will immediately attract the eyes. For example, instead of using planks or bricks, you can use branches, trunks, concrete blocks, or even stones.

Sandbags are the other creative materials that you can easily get. To make the garden look charming in a rustic way, you can use burlap sacks instead of white sandbags.

Vegetable Garden Designs for Small Yards

Finally, if you have limited space, you can try ingenious vegetable garden designs for small yards. As explained before, the vertical vegetable garden is a useful solution for a small yard. However, you can also try hanging garden, using cut-off gutter or PVC pipe as planting medium.

Another way to have a small vegetable garden is by using containers. They allow you to place your vegetables on spots such as a patio, yard, balcony, or even table.

Since you have limited options, make sure to plan your veggie options. Depending how many veggies you need, you may choose plants that provide harvests in all seasons, or dwarf varieties and vines that do not take much space.

    DIY modern vegetable plantings… how do you harvest the vegetables on those top high plots? When do you know they’re ready? Nice look… for side and under my veggies, and what the heck did I plant up there again?

    Hello,

    FYI… I would be slightly concerned about using wooden pallets in the vegetable garden unless it is known what and where they came from. Many pallets shipped in from overseas or abroad are treated with insecticides to avoid invasive insects from entering the country. I do use pallets in my garden. 🙂

      How do you know if the pallets are safe to use then? Where do you get safe ones from?
