October naturally feels like the end of a growing season. As the leaves fall from the trees and the temperatures drop many growers start putting their plots to bed for the year. However, it shouldn’t be seen as all over as October can still a productive time in a vegetable garden. There are lots of crops to harvest in October and a good selection of vegetables to plant.
Hardy vegetable crops can be sown into the warm and moist fall soils, still with enough time in many climates to get off to a strong start before the winter frosts arrive. These vegetables will start growing again when the temperatures rise again to give you earlier spring harvests.
