Introduction

Planting a vegetable garden in the front yard is a great way to add beauty, curb appeal and value to your home. It’s also possible to enjoy homegrown produce without sacrificing aesthetics. If you love fresh veggies, but don’t have the space for a large garden out back, consider carving out some space in your front yard. It’s a great way to feed your family and beautify your home.

Plan Your Space.

• Plan Your Space
• Think about how much space you will need. How many vegetables are you going to grow? Do you want to grow fruits and berries, too?
• Consider how much space you have available for your garden. Then, think about the size of each plant’s root system—for example, tomatoes have deep roots and will need more room than peppers or strawberries. You’ll also want to account for walking paths between rows of plants so that they don’t block access around them when they’re mature.
• Finally, think about what your budget is like as well as whether or not it would be feasible on a week-to-week basis (if not weekly) to devote time and energy into maintaining a vegetable garden in your front yard if necessary/desired (if so).

Pick Your Plants.

Once you have your plan in place, it’s time to start picking plants. When choosing which vegetables to plant in your front yard garden, consider the following:

• Are they easy to grow? Your front yard garden should be planted with vegetables that are easy to grow. This means they don’t need a lot of water or fertilizer and they can withstand some light frost when winter comes around.
• Are they easy to maintain? If you don’t want too much maintenance on your front yard garden, then make sure the seeds/plants are native and will thrive in your area without needing extra care. It also helps if the plant produces fruit within its first year of growth so there won’t be any waiting around before harvesting!
• Are they easy to harvest? Many people prefer an attractive crop as well as one that can easily be harvested from their own backyard rather than buying from local farmers’ market every week (not so convenient). Make sure all these things are considered when making choices – otherwise it could mean lots more work than necessary!

Keep It Simple.

It’s definitely possible to grow vegetables in your front yard garden, but it doesn’t have to be complicated. When you’re choosing what kinds of plants to plant, keep it simple by focusing on ones that grow well in your climate, are easy to grow, harvest and store.

You should also think about how easy the produce is going to be for you when it comes time for you or a family member who isn’t used to cooking with fresh ingredients or is unfamiliar with vegetable preparation.

Don’t Forget Fertilizer.

Don’t forget fertilizer!

Fertilizer is essential to the growth of your plants and fruit. Fertilizer will help them grow faster, produce more fruit, and grow in the right shape.

Create Structures for Climbing Plants.

When it comes to planting vegetables, you have to make sure that the structure you use is not too tall. Also, if the trellis is made of wood, it shouldn’t be too wide or heavy. You don’t want to do any damage to your plants by using a material that isn’t strong enough. The same goes for the length of your trellis: It should not be too short or long either because then it won’t serve its purpose well.

Plant Flowers to Add Beauty and Bloo

Flowering plants can be useful for adding beauty, color and fragrance to your vegetable garden. Flowers can also serve to attract pollinators like butterflies and bees, which will help with the production of your vegetables.

In the front yard vegetable garden, it is best to plant flowers around the perimeter of the plot or in between certain vegetables that you want pollinated by insects. These flowers could include sunflowers or other large daisy-like flowers that are known for attracting bees as well as providing them with pollen for food.

You should also consider planting mints around your front yard vegetable garden because these plants are known for attracting certain types of butterflies such as skippers (lepidoptera) whose larvae feed exclusively on this herbaceous perennial plant from genus Mentha.

Conclusion

It’s important to keep the soil moist, but not soggy. Water deeply early in the day so that the soil has time to dry before nightfall.
