Question:

What would be a good site for a vegetable garden?

Answer:

Vegetables grow best in a well-drained, fertile soil.  The garden site should also receive at least 6 hours of direct sun each day.  Avoid shady sites near large trees and shrubs.  Most vegetable crops will not produce well if they don’t receive sufficient sunlight.  The site should also be fairly level to avoid soil erosion problems and free of difficult-to-control weeds, such as Canada thistle and field bindweed.
