Eat from your garden the year around

Eating out of the garden all year is my constant goal. Some years I manage at least 10 months. Some years the frost gets me and I only manage 9 months.

I live in the upper part of South Carolina. Technically in Zone 7b, but we do get some unusual weather here that is more like Zone 6 at times.

I plant 3 gardens every year.

My first garden goes into the ground from the middle of February to the end of March.
This is when I plant potatoes, peas, onions, greens, carrots, & beets.

My second garden is for the warmer season vegetables. I plant these from mid-April through May.
Beans, cantaloupe, corn, cucumbers, herbs, okra, peppers, squash, & tomatoes.

Then, when it seems that nothing will grow in the heat, I plant my 3rd garden in August. I have to pay attention to keeping things watered, but it is well worth the time and effort.
I put in second plantings of such things as beets, cabbage, carrots, greens of all kinds, onions, peas, and of course, radishes.

I love the results! My frig stays stocked. Nothing beats the flavor of fresh vegetables, right out of the garden.

I've posted a more complete planting list on our website. www.justplantssc.com
Enjoy.
