'It's not too late!' These are the vegetables you can plant in July to be eating from your backyard by fall

The later summer months are all about enjoying your backyard. It's looking at its best after all that hard work earlier in the year. Those dark evenings and chilly days spent out pruning, digging over beds, and finding the perfect spot for plants that are now flourishing. But, as any avid gardener will know, there is always more to be done, and July, with its long warm days, can be the perfect month for planting up veg.

You see, it's not too late! There is still plenty of produce that you can sow from seed in July into your vegetable garden. As well as veg that you can plant now and harvest over the fall and winter (carrots, cabbages, turnips), there are vegetables that you can sow now and enjoy over the rest of the summer too. Salad leaves and leafy green veg for example are easy wins.
