The Veggie-Bed is a small backyard garden in Chesapeake, VA, belonging to Tom Myrick, who draws inspiration for Eco Tom and Eco Tom’s Sanctuary from this space. Covering about 450 square feet, Tom’s urban garden utilizes a no-till, raised-row, organic system refined over a decade, prioritizing crop rotation for healthy soil and pest management.
This season, he has planted only one row in each of the two 20 by 10-foot sections to allow the soil to rest, showcasing root vegetables, leafy greens, legumes, and fruit vegetables, all thriving at the same time.
Tom’s dedication to sustainable gardening fosters a vibrant ecosystem, reflecting his passion for nurturing the land and promoting environmental stewardship while enjoying the joy of gardening and the bounty it yields.
Eco Tom blends science with the heart of a gardener and encourages you to join him on his journey.
