Annual Crop Rotation

It’s a new year, and the Urban Gardening team can’t wait to get started on the 2024 growing season (zone 8a). We have already planned the best spots for our crops and switched the sections from last year. This way, we make sure that each section gets a fresh type of crop every year, like this:

Leaf crops replace Legume crops.
Legume crops replace Root crops.
Root crops replace Fruit crops.
Fruit crops replace Leaf crops.

This smart move helps us keep the soil healthy, rich, and free from nasty pests
