Your garden is probably at its peak, but if you'd like to extend your harvest until winter sets in, right now is the time to plant for a fall harvest. Many of the plants that bolt or falter once summer's heat gets here in June can be successfully grown as a fall crop in our area. Broccoli, cabbages, greens, peas, carrots, and radishes, and fall color pansies and mums, should all be planted now.
No prior registration is required. For information, call 882-8600.
