Again, I think the OP is talking about a traditional vegetable garden, and again, you can interplant, and grow stuff in pots or on your lanai (if it doesn't need to be pollinated), or grow anything you want in a CYV neighborhood.
One comment. I have been growing a (one) tomato plant since last October - got 3 little tomatoes maybe in Dec. or Jan. Covered it whenever frost threatened. Got new blooms and maybe 8-10 green tomatoes this spring. Harvested 1, 2 more were turning red and the mockingbirds pecked out from below, just picked 2 more that were barely starting to turn red and are sitting on our counter. About 4-5 more (pretty small and still green) that we might get before leave for up north (and it also gets too hot here for tomatoes).
So - a lot of work for about 5-7 tomatoes (but they taste pretty good).
Next year (in Sept) going to try cherry tomatoes, hoping I can find one of the Sungold ones (yellow cherry tomatoes).
