Laying out the garden plan

For several years I have scratched out my garden plan on a piece of copy paper.  No ruler, straight lines or accurate proportions. Just the rough layout of where stuff would basically go.  This has worked just fine until last year a fellow gardener ruined it.  He showed me his fancy schmancy layout that he designed online, printed out and brought to the community garden with him. I would never be so low-tech again.  Green with envy, I visited the website he referred me to.  I paid my $25 annual fee and tinkered around with the program.  Although there are a few things I don’t like about it, over all it is a wonderful planning tool.

This miraculous website?  GrowVeg.com.  It is pretty easy to get rolling with.  My attached plan is my first rendition.  It will change a time or two more and there will be successive planting that is not represented here.  My next step is to order the seeds that I will need, get my indoor grow lights set up and wish the winter would be over with!
