Whether you're working with a tiny backyard, a patio, a balcony, or a few containers on your porch, choosing the right crops can help you harvest fresh produce all season long while saving money at the grocery store. The key isn't growing the most plants. It's growing the right plants. Some vegetables produce for months, while others can be harvested repeatedly from a single planting. Others grow vertically, allowing you to maximize every square foot of your garden.
