I have never planted a fall veggie garden before, so this is a new thing for me. I have been pouring over my catalogs trying to find some veggies that we will eat that grow good in the cool weather up here in New Hampshire.
I placed an order with Territorial Seeds for two different kind of lettuce, some snap peas (I got my others from Burpee through The Home Depot), and some carrots. I also love the Seed Savers Exchange and Seeds of Change companies. What other companies do you like to get your seeds or plants from?
The seeds I ordered are:
Super Sugar Snap Peas
Tom Thumb Lettuce
Valmaine Lettuce (organic)
Yaya Carrots (organic)
The snap peas are going to go in the same place as the spring plantings went. I am also going to be putting the lettuce there as well. The carrots are a different thing. Those are going to be grown in some of the big pots I have in my garden. I don't have any more space in my raised beds for them. It's another reason I am not trying a fall planting of broccoli. No more room.
The spring peas are gone and I just need to clean up and get the bed ready for the fall planting. As soon as the seeds arrive, they will be planted. I also need to find some shade cloth in case the sun gets to be too much for these cool weather loving veggies.
Those are some great choices. I'm doing the same planting for fall it looks like. Heres hoping the weather holds out
