How the bed is laid out

A double black raised bed. Turnip in the row along the long side, colourful chard in the innermost row.

Chard's deep roots and turnip's shallow ones stay out of each other's way.

A friendly reminder: every garden plays by its own rules. Zones, soil, weather and a hundred small things decide what works — so this is how I did it and what worked for me, not a promise. Try, learn, adjust, try again.. that's half the fun anyway.
