Four Square Vegetable garden

I was thinking about doing an old fashion 4 square veggie garden this year. Also adding a few cut flower plants. Do you have any suggestions, or any plans available? Thanks

p.s. Mid West area...soil good, raised bed.

Doug says that there's a video up on this page that demonstrates basic vegetable garden design. There are also designs in the intensive gardening ebook. for specific rotations.

The problem with specific plans is that you likely want to grow vegetables that I don't even want in my garden or (more likely) we're growing so many different things that you'd never consider growing (my partner is a seed collector and we grow a significant number of seeds every year).

So - it's mostly about picking the plants you like, and then setting up system as in the video above.

Not sure I've given you what you want to know but I don't have a real sense that anybody can design your garden past giving you general guidelines as it is so variable depending on what you want to grow.
