Episode #2: How to Extend Your Garden Season; Plus Planting Fall Garlic

In Podcast Episode 2, I share a few ideas on how you can extend your gardening season into late fall and perhaps right through spring using mulch, floating row covers, and even constructing a simple low tunnel over your raised beds. Plus I’ll share tips for planting one of my favorite fall vegetables — and probably one of the easiest to grow โ€“ and thatโ€™s garlic!

I love the color of these Italian Red of Florence I love the color of these Italian Red of Florence bunching onions. This bunch overwintered... I thought they'd be soft and mushy, but they are perfect. A testament to their hardiness and prefect for our cooler region.
