I'm looking for something to contrast with огород so I don't end up with garden...garden, and also because I suspect these were larger than the word "garden" will suggest in English.
Full sentence, discussing labor experience for besprizorniki:
Такими государственными предприятими наиболее подходящими являются совхозы, и особенно там, где есть сады и большие огороды, и далее там, где климат тёплый и где, следовательно, мы имеем две выгоды -- это продолжительный сезон для работ в саду и огороде и второе: в тёплом климате не требуется ни одежды, ни обуви солидной, ни зданий капитальных.

a few ideas
Here are a few ideas I have:
1) Fruit and vegetable gardens
2) Orchards and vegetable gardens
There's also "market garden" which stands for "огород для выращивания овощей на продажу". And it seems appropriate because we are speaking about совхоз. But as far as I know it's a British term. So if that's OK with you, my third variant would be:
3) Orchards and market gardens
