Square foot gardening uses vegetables in an intensive way to grow more than one crop and waste very little space, weeding and water.

Square foot gardening is growing your vegetable in an alotted space of 4x4 or etc. Really your gardening area can be the square feet you desire. So, instead of planting in rows, you plant your plants in that particular squared off area. This, to me, is a much simpler way to garden because of the containment. Each veggie has it's own squared-off area, and usually I will make these beds raised. Each bed could even have different soil requirements for whatever you decide to grow. Square foot gardening is a system that allows a person with limited space to garden. To read more about all kinds of gardening, such as Lasagna gardening, go to www.annasrosegarden.com.

The question, as stated, cannot be answered sensibly. A square metre is a measure of area, with dimensions [L2]. A foot is a measure of distance, with dimensions [L]. The two measure different things and elementary dimensional analysis teaches that you cannot convert between measures with different dimensions such as these without additional information. The questioner may have meant, how many square meters in a square foot. There are 0.093 square meters in a square foot. There are also 10.76 square feet in a square meter. Hope this helps!
