Start by mapping the whole area like a puzzle – each square meter counts. Put the greenhouse on a raised slab right next to the fire pit so the heat from the pit can double as a greenhouse vent. Keep the beds in a triangle so you can pull the plants in from the center without wasting arm‑moves. Use every scrap of stone you mine for the pit walls, it’s cheaper than buying new, and stack a few rows of soil to create a vertical garden – that’s 20% more crop per foot. If you’re into “secret love nests” then drape a camouflage tarp over the greenhouse and paint the fire pit in neutral tones – nobody will suspect a survival kitchen. Just make sure that wall is straight – a backward wall means wasted time digging a new foundation.
