I've always been interested in having a large veg and herb garden but have been stuck in an apartment my whole adult life. I just purchased a house with an acre or so of land and I was hoping to set aside a 500 sqft or so patch for these purposes. The land gets lots of sun, but it is also quite exposed to the elements. I am pretty much on the ocean, about 500 meters from the actual shore though and quite a bit higher (not good with measurements but I'd guess the lot is about 100ft above sea level). There isn't a lot of topsoil as the area is mostly rocky with alders all over, but I was going to have a bunch trucked in for this. Is there any point in this endeavor or am I destined for failure due to my proximity to the ocean?
