Here in the Fraser Valley, it's the time of year to start planning vegetable gardens. Selecting what veggies you want to grow, if you'll add flowers, and where you'll source your seeds/plants.
If you've never had a garden, there are many ways to creatively set up a garden, even if you don't have much space! Some options to consider include:
- Container garden - on your patio, rooftop or in your yard
- Raised garden beds - build your own or purchase a kit to put together
- In-ground traditional garden
- Community garden
Whatever type of garden you choose, ensure success by using the best quality soil. Denbow's GroZone is specifically designed for vegetable, rose and flower growth in the Fraser Valley.
