Mr Cason's Vegetable Garden Design Mr. Cason's Vegetable Garden is designed in three large, semicircular terraces that provide erosion-reducing contours. The lower terrace is 1.5 acres and is planted primarily with fruit crops including figs, peaches and apples. An extensive Herb Garden on this terrace level displays many medicinal, fragrant and culinary herbs .
Some familiar varieties are fennel, rosemary, lavender, carraway and dill.
The three-acre middle terrace is planted seasonally with annual vegetables. In the early Spring the cool crops such as lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli and radishes are planted. In April and May, warm crops such as tomatoes, corn, beans, squash, okra and peppers are planted. The upper terrace is also three acres and is planted primarily in strawberries, blueberries, muscadines and unusual vegetables.
