The perimeter of a rectangle is calculated by adding up the lengths of all its sides. In this case, we can use the formula 2l + 2w to find the perimeter.

Given that the length (l) is 28 feet and the width (w) is 16 feet, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Perimeter = 2(28) + 2(16)
Perimeter = 56 + 32
Perimeter = 88 feet

So, the perimeter of the garden is 88 feet. Therefore, the correct answer is 88 feet.
