About this Event
Fall is a fantastic time to plant a vegetable garden. While some summer favorites may be winding down, a surprising variety of cool-weather crops thrive in the crisp autumn air.
The best part? Many fall vegetables are remarkably fast-growing, allowing you to enjoy a fresh harvest from your garden well into the cooler months.
In this class you will learn:
- How to use your last frost date as a guide for planting cool-season vegetables at the perfect time.
- Discover which fall vegetables thrive from direct sowing in your garden and which benefit from a head start indoors as transplants.
- How to protect your vegetables from chilly autumn nights, extending your harvest window.
- Pest protection for vulnerable fall vegetables including barriers and companion planting.
