Fall Gardening Time

Anybody who knows me knows that I’d rather have a subscription to Mother Earth News about a thousand times over Vogue or Cosmo.  I’m just that kind of gal.  So in celebration of Fall here’s a great post about when and what to plant this fall.  Enjoy.

“Planting seeds for your fall garden. As summer draws to a close, gardens everywhere can morph into a tapestry of delicious greens, from tender lettuce to frost-proof spinach, with a sprinkling of red mustard added for spice. In North America’s southern half, as long as seeds germinate in late July or early August, fall gardens can grow the best cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower you’ve ever tasted. In colder climates it’s prime time to sow carrots, rutabagas and turnips to harvest in the fall. Filling space vacated by spring crops with summer-sown vegetables will keep your garden productive well into fall, and even winter.”
