    Mine is small at ~40 sq. feet. I have about 3 mos of growing season here and not a lot of land to use.

    We have a 4x25 ft raised bed that is lying fallow.... ok, in reality I just didn't get anything planted this year. I want to expand it for the next growing season though.

    We have 4 - 40 sq. ft. raised beds and an herb garden (shaped in a half ellipse) about 60 sq. ft. Looking to add about 8 more raised beds. Probably won't happen until next fall.

I have a couple double dug beds 2 are 16x2 and another triangular shaped one that is about 100 sf.. and we use a greenhouse year round as well that is 16x10.. All are used year round for something or another and we will be expanding as free time permits ..

    I have 1000 sq feet of traditional garden space that I plant in wide rows. I'm building another 10x4 bed that will be dedicated to onions and garlic. Then there are the fruit trees and bushes.

    The family garden is about 12/15ishx15/18ish. Then the squash, cantalope, and watermelon plants run over the edges. Then Sis has berry bushes and grapes planted around an 8x8 trellis.
