Three research-backed demo gardens for Food Not Bombs Canton. Each plan optimizes for different goals: maximum yield, easy start for new gardeners, and year-round storage.
Kale, swiss chard, collard greens, lettuce, spinach, parsley. #1 food bank request — 3-season harvests from a single planting.
Classic companion guild — tomatoes, peppers, basil, marigold, sweet alyssum. One plant yields 10-20 lbs.
Onion, carrot, beet, chive. Root vegetables store 2-5 months without refrigeration — food bank storage backbone.
24 potatoes — highest calorie crop per sqft. Stores 4-6 months. One bed yields 50-100 lbs for multiple families.
Butternut squash (3-6 month storage), green beans (plant protein), 7 cooking herbs for on-site meal prep.
