Potager Garden Design for Small Space Living



Growing food is essential to owning your food source, which often means utilizing whatever space is available. Potager gardens, or kitchen gardens, are designed to grow not only seasonal vegetables but to also grow herbs and medical plants. In addition to this, fruit bushes or trees are also grown in the same space.

I want to take you on a tour of our new portager which was built using recycled materials. The space is small, but is quite capable of growing a large amount of food and medicinal herbs. In addition to this, transitioning from season to season will be seamless.

Learn more about the concept behind the kitchen garden and how we designed and constructed ours.

  1. Thank you so much for you channel, blog, and book. You are the reason I was willing to take the jump into canning and preserving my own food.

  2. Ann the Potager is gorgeous! I love that you upcycled your broken concrete for the pathways. Where did you find those gorgeous wrought iron chairs?

  3. Your potager is lovely and inspiring! Thank you for this bit of sunshine on a cold, rainy winter morning πŸ™‚

  4. It's absolutely beautiful. Alot of hard work went into this. I know. Our home and beautiful garden was destroyed last year from a tornado. We are rebuilding and my mind is going crazy trying to figure out a new layout. We lost all trees around our house so we definitely have alot more room for a bigger garden. I plan on a alot of planting of flower garden area. I did just like you I kept my flowers Intermingled and will do that again but will have a cut flower garden area, too. I love your walk ways. But I don't think that will be a possibility for us. To big of an area. I think I will just use the fabric cover for walk ways for now. Anyways you gave me hope. Thank you. God is Good.

  5. Love your garden. Please tell me what the name of the large leaf vine growing on the arbor. Love that so much. Thank you.
