Starting a vegetable garden in your front yard can solve space and sunlight problems, so long as you plan it well. First, check any rules from your city or homeowners’ association. Talk with neighbors to avoid any concerns. Then pick a spot with about six hours of sun. You can use raised beds over grass or dig an in-ground bed. Keep it under 4 feet wide. Test your soil's pH before planting and add compost. And keep the garden neat. You can add some flowers, too, for looks and to help control pests. Some of those neighbors might stop to admire it and chat.
