New garden lay out advice


Hello, I'm getting ready to plant a new garden and want your advice! I have 4 2×8 beds that I'm looking to fill. Ive been using an
app to help me plan and have been designing it around companion planting. Each blue box represents a different raised bed. They will each be 2.5' apart. Any thoughts and advice appreciated. Thanks

    Given that the beds are long, you might consider arranging plants so that they duplicate along the long axis. E.g., instead of having the eggplants on each side, have them on the same side. This could make your work more efficient because when you’re (for example) picking pests off of one eggplant you can move down a few inches and do the second one. With your current layout you’d need to bend over to reach the second one or walk around to the other side. But that’s just me and I’m very Type A.
