Market Vegetable Gardens: Planning for Success.

WSU Extension Manual EM032E

Market gardens are generally small plots of land (1/4 acre to 2 acres) that produce diverse vegetables, fruit, and/or flower crops to sell directly to consumers. Sales can occur via community-supported agriculture shares, directly from the farm, at local farmers’ markers, and to local restaurants, stores and co-ops. This publication presents guidelines for successful production and marketing of a market garden in Washington or Oregon west of the Cascades emphasizing annual vegetables.

Extension programs and employment are available to all without discrimination. Evidence of noncompliance may be reported through your local Extension office. All programs comply with federal, state, and county regulations.
