And you thought it was too late to go self-sufficient! Happily, there are still a few different types of vegetables you can plant in August that will still give you produce this year. There really is no time like the present.
August is the perfect month for adding to your vegetable garden. Much like the best vegetables to plant in July, planting up veggies in August means they will benefit from the last few weeks of warm weather and you could be eating from your backyard well into the winter. You can also get growing vegetables with longer grow times so you will have something in the depth of winter and early spring too.
