Cutting garden

I am new to gardening and would like to start a cutting garden that my granddaughters can help plant. The girls are ages 6 and 8. Can you give me some helpful tips? Maybe share a link to help get me started. I am in zone 9 and have a large area to work with. Is it to late to start this year? I would like flowers that are fast growing to keep their interest.

Thank you

I would recommend visiting your local garden center to make some selections for your new garden.

Starting with plants instead of seeds will help get the garden going sooner.

Here are some articles to help you.
