HOW MUCH to grow?
How Much Should You Grow?
How much to grow really depends on what you’re looking for.
Are you growing just for your family? Selling at a market? Supplying restaurants or a CSA? Each goal will completely change your numbers.
The best place to start is by looking at the space you have to work with. From there, you can figure out what’s realistic and what your garden (or farm) can produce.
For example:
- Want to grow enough tomatoes to make sauce all winter?
- Hoping to have garlic to last until next spring?
- Trying to plan weekly harvests for a CSA?
Each of those requires a different scale and strategy.
Because there’s so much nuance to it — soil health, spacing, succession timing, storage — I like to help people with this on a more individual basis. Everyone’s situation is unique, and your plan should reflect your goals.
If you’d like help figuring out how many tomato plants your family really needs or how much garlic to plant to last the winter, I can help walk you through it!

Skip the produce section at the grocery store. From garlic, to lettuce, to ginger. I have 9 years under my belt as a organic farm owner full time!
