Growing your own vegetable garden
Growing and eating your own vegetables brings enormous satisfaction. As well as the aesthetic appeal, you get to work with nature, and you are rewarded with delicious, healthy produce for all the family.
Successful vegetable gardening takes time to learn and requires knowledge in multiple fields: selecting the plant starts or seedlings, timing, watering (neither too much nor too little), fertilising, and protecting against disease and insects.
The raised vegetable garden, a safe place for your herbs and vegetables
Planting in the ground can present several challenges: unsuitable soil or exposure, time-consuming daily maintenance and poor posture.
What about a raised vegetable garden bed? Terre de Provence offers a range of bed sizes or can custom build one to suit your available space. Compact and shallow, the raised bed requires less watering and maintenance. We fill it with a suitable soil mix and select plants that grow well together. We also make sure to plant to right amount of each vegetable, so you can enjoy a varied menu and avoid eating zucchini every day in the summer.
To save you the hassle of watering, we can include drip irrigation to your vegetable garden bed.
We discuss together which vegetables and herbs you need and where to set up the planters. We order or build the planters and install them in your garden:
