FALL & WINTER gardening
We’ve been gardening without chemical fertilizers or pesticides (organic) in raised beds, garden beds, an adobe greenhouse and carport / greenhouse.
I’ve had a little veggie and herb garden for 10 years, but had assumed that it was too cold to garden in winter.
Why didn’t anyone tell me how incredibly EASY it is to grow fresh delicious organic salad through winter?
Winter is the perfect time for salads and winter veggies in our climate. Most critters and bugs are hibernating or not yet born and you don’t need to water a lot.
