  2. Plant pollinators and native plants around your garden to attract bees and keep moisture in the soil.
    Also, while I plant in rows, they are right next to each other, and I use a few flagstones to get around in the garden – I use very little walking space.

  5. @1:08 The comment about the beds being farther apart for the wheel barrow. I thought about that and pictured beds that were close enough to lay a metal / wood / composite, etc. grate over the bed edges with a ramp to access it from the outer garden when needed. Then, when done with the big project, the grates can be removed / stored.
