Square Foot Gardening allows you to grow 100% of your harvest in only 20% of the space.

Start with bottomless boxes laid on top of your existing soil, remove grass or weeds first , then fill the boxes in with a perfect soil mix. Forget all about your existing soil we don’t care how bad it is.

BUILD UP, RATHER THAN DIG DOWN

It’s really that simple: If you no longer have to dig down to improve your existing soil, you no longer need rototillers, heavy tools, soil testing or the time to do all that work!

BE INDEPENDENT! START YOUR OWN SQUARE FOOT GARDEN

If you only need 20% of the normal space, think how that simplifies your garden. Location, weeding, watering, equipment, and protection -the list goes on and on. Whatever you do, you’ll only be doing 20% of what you did before, but still getting 100% of your harvest!

In the original book, I explained how to improve your existing soil by digging down and adding lots of good stuff. But that only produced a slightly improved soil, and it was a lot of work. Now we eliminate all that hard work by building up...no more digging down.
