Our Fall Garden


I am a couple of weeks behind schedule, but I finally got my fall garden planted over the weekend. Fall gardens are always tricky for me... we have a rather small space and big dreams...which means that most of our fall plants and seeds get tucked in between squash vines, amongst pole beans, and anywhere else a patch of unoccupied space resides.
This year I planted kale, lots of beets, chard, lettuce, arugula, mustard greens and radishes. Garlic and shallots will find there way in there in the next few weeks, and I am debating giving some broccoli starts another try (we have had poor luck in the past).
Do you have a fall garden? What are you growing? Pin It Now!

  2. No fall garden here, but I am thinking about trying next year. I will keep our greens going as long as I can see them in the snow and we will continue to harvest whatever else keeps growing.

    Looking forward to following your fall garden.

    My husband Jeff planted lots of kale. Now we want to plant garlic. :)
