It Is Garden Time

Now is the time to be planning and/or planting your garden.  You may think it is too cool but the cool weather of Spring is just what peas, lettuce, spinach, cilantro, beets, carrots, other root vegetables, and cabbage, cauliflower, and other plants in the cabbage family prefer.

Tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucumber, melons, beans, and basil prefer warmer weather and are best planted after your last average frost date unless protected from likely frosts. Even if you don’t plant now you can plan what, how many, and when to plant. Then you can prepare the garden area.
