Green Street — Cottage Garden

Seasonal guidance for the vegetable gardener

Green Street presents a curated portfolio of cottage garden practices for seasoned growers. This home page highlights season-by-season strategies, beds, succession plantings, soil health, and perennial edibles that thrive in monochrome rhythm and timeless form.

Spring seed beds

Spring — Start with soil health

Incorporate compost, test pH, and plan succession for cool-season crops. Build sturdy bed frames with organic mulch paths.

Summer vegetable bed

Summer — Water wisely

Mulch deeply, irrigate at root level, and rehearse crop rotation to reduce disease pressure in cottage borders.

Autumn harvest and greens

Autumn — Plant for overwintering

Direct sow hardy greens, sowed garlic and onions, and prepare cold frames for early spring harvests.

Winter greenhouse or sheltered bed

Winter — Plan and prune

Review last season, prune perennials, and order seeds for the next cycle while conserving heat in sheltered plots.
