Hi all, looking for some perspectives for noobs. I'm just getting started on gardening in the Seattle area and have the goal to maximize frequency with which we can add something from the garden to our meals. My primary constraint is time outside of work + juggling kids, and I'm looking to adopt a systematic approach that allows family to participate in a coordinated way (probably keep state on wall charts and white boards). I have a few raised beds in the yard from the previous residents here, some plants (a few different berries, salad greens, some herbs here and there), a few hand tools, but not much practical knowledge. After a little research I've purchased two books that I'll link below but I'm curious what other resources others here recommend. Thank you all!
