16 Best Plants to Grow in a VegTrug

What is a VegTrug?

A VegTrug is a raised bed on legs that lifts plants up off the ground making them more accessible and making gardening something that people of all ages and abilities can enjoy.

Carrots

Carrots are another deep-rooted crop that thrives in the VegTrug. I plant a row of them down the center where they have the full depth to grow.

Radishes

Radishes will give you an abundant harvest in a VegTrug. They only take a month to fully grow and it was still a bit too cold for most things I wanted to plant.

Beans

Both bush beans and pole beans grow wonderfully in the VegTrug. You will need to give climbing varieties a little bit of support but they will absolutely thrive

Peas

Whether you like your peas still in the pod or out of it peas are a fantastic option for your VegTrug. Much like your beans, they are going to need some support

Peppers

Hot peppers, bell peppers, sweet peppers…they all do amazingly well in the VegTrug.

Beets

Beetroots need up to 12 inches of space to grow into the dirt depending on the variety. 

Broccoli

Broccoli is a fantastic vegetable to grow in your VegTrug, assuming your family likes broccoli

Herbs

Herbs are an amazing option for growing in your VegTrug. In fact, doing so is so popular that the company released a version of their VegTrug that is designed specifically for herbs
