The production garden I lead with just one other volunteer and a few group
work sessions each season produced roughly 1400 lbs of produce in one year.
In NC we can grow 10 months a year and our garden has about 1800 sq ft of
growing space.
With more tending and attention to rotating crops in and out, we could do
much much more.
Our crops consisted mostly of lettuce, turnips, peas, collards, arugula,
carrots, kohlrabi, cucumbers, squash, tomatoes, okra, peppers, eggplant and
beans.
Wish us luck for the next year!
