location

Once you have decided to create a garden, the first thing on your mental checklist, should be 'location, location, location.' The garden should be designed for the climate, space available, and the crop you want to grow.
 
Decide where and how much you are going to plant.
 
The location of your garden affects the amount of light and/or shade your plants receive.Certain plant species require a certain amount of sunlight to grow well. If there are specific plants you plan to have in your garden, research their light requirements before picking the garden location.
 
When you own your own home with land, space might not be much of a concern. Those without readily available land, might have to join a gardening collective (preferably one that is using organic methods) and get a single bed or more of your own.
