   If you want to plant a garden, the first thing you’ll need is a good place．Plants need soil to grow in．They also need sun and water ．Find a place that will get sunshine most of the day ．Make sure it is near a supply of water．You will have to bring water to your plants if there is not enough rain．Once you have found a good place, you will need three more things: seeds, some kind of plant food, and a few gardening tools．

   Now you’re almost ready to plant the seeds ．But first you must plant where the seeds will go．If possible, put them in rows．Check the directions the sunlight comes from．Put seeds for the tallest plants where they won’t block light for the shorter plants．That way, all of your plants will get as much sun as possible．
