veggie garden
Backyard growing space
A veggie garden is a plot of land, raised bed, or container setup dedicated to growing vegetables for personal consumption.
The term is casual shorthand for vegetable garden, commonly used in conversation about home gardening and backyard food production.
We're putting in a veggie garden this spring.
The phrase often implies a modest, homegrown operation rather than commercial farming.
