Hello /diy/,

I've always wanted a garden since I was little and I'm really interested in growing my own food.
That being said I live in a shitty apartment with no garden and I won't get one in the near future.

I live fairly close to the edge of town though and know a few pieces of land close to a river that no one seems to frequent or care about. Pretty secluded and "innawoods".

What tools do I need to clear some space for gardening? I'm thinking of setting up in the middle of some overgrown field so my plot will be harder to spot. I'll need a hoe, a watering can, a trowel, maybe a small rake.
What else would I need to clear some space? Wha kinds of natural fertilizers might I be looking for that I could mix into the soil? What are the easiest veggies to grow with minmal tools? Lettuce, carrots and beans?


I'm an absolute beginner and a bit strapped for money so I'd like to keep everything as basic as possible. I don't mind getting dirty or working with my bare hands.

You can still grow a surprising amount of food indoors in an apartment.

Oh, thank you. I was even debating whether to put this thread on /diy/ or /an/. Turns out I would've been wrong either way.
