Free Garden Planning Tool check out This

Read any newspaper these days, and you may be surprised to see our humble hobby making headlines. Unprecedented numbers of people are starting their very first veggie garden this year, and the media has finally picked up on what gardeners have known for years: Growing your own food is healthy, cheap, and fun!

If the statistics are true, you probably have friends, neighbors, or family members who like the idea of a vegetable garden but don't know where to start. You can't play consultant to each and every one of these novice gardeners, but you can point them to a cool new online planning tool for kitchen gardens.

Don't know how many veggies will fit into your space? No problem—the tool lets you drag and drop veggies into your online garden so you can see how many you need. Wondering how much soil to put in a raised bed? The tool will calculate that for you, too.

The best part is that it's free from Gardener's Supply . Help your friends learn the joys of growing edibles—and use it to expand your own veggie garden while you're at it!
