What is a "vegetable garden"?
A vegetable garden is a designated area where various vegetables are grown for personal use or consumption. It typically consists of soil beds or containers where plants like tomatoes, carrots, lettuce, and peppers are cultivated. Vegetable gardens can be small, such as a few raised beds or pots on a balcony, or large, spread out in backyards or community gardens. Growing a vegetable garden allows individuals to harvest fresh, homegrown produce, helping with food sustainability and providing a rewarding gardening experience.
