I live in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho. However, I am in the mountains about 2K feet up. I am new to gardening in the fall. When do I start planting my fall garden? What do I plant in a fall garden. It starts getting cool in October & a bit cooler in November. Barbara Turner.
Hi Barbara, I provide several good tips in the blog post: Time to plant a Fall Garden You can start planting carrots, beets, and radishes now. Followed by greens and lettuces in August. Look for varieties that have short days to maturity to ensure a harvest before winter sets in. Spinach and kale actually tastes better after a light frost, and carrots, if well mulched, can last into the winter months. Check out the blog post for more detail to help you get started.
