Frequently Asked Questions
How much will my vegetable garden produce?
A well-maintained garden produces 0.5-1.5 lbs per square foot per season. A 4x8 raised bed (32 sq ft) can yield 25-50 lbs of vegetables. Using intensive/square foot methods and succession planting can double these numbers.
How much does a tomato plant produce?
A single indeterminate tomato plant produces 10-20 lbs of tomatoes per season (about 20-40 medium tomatoes). Determinate varieties produce 8-15 lbs in a concentrated harvest period. Cherry tomatoes can yield even more by count.
How big a garden to feed a family of 4?
A 600-800 sq ft garden can provide a significant portion of a family of 4's summer vegetables. For year-round eating including preserved foods, plan 200 sq ft per person (800 sq ft total). Start small and expand as you gain experience.
