I especially love your cold frame/row cover. That's a great idea. I so love your little garden. I especially love your cold frame/row cover. That’s a great idea.

Also carrots are good in winter and they seem to taste better when fall and winter grown. You might try cauliflower in the winter as I’ve had very good luck with every variety I’ve tried.

I wish I had enough room to intermingle, but my veggie patch is full and limited. But now I can extend my season with the greenhouse. It went up today-whoo hoo! I'm planning on growing some veggies in pots in there, but I have to wait until it's not 85 outside and thus 100 in the greenhouse during the day! What a beautiful garden you have, Robin.

I'm usually out of energy by this time of the year, I admit. I do put up a lot of stuff from the garden to get me through the boring winter of grocery store food, though--does that count? When I'm eating dried cherries and homemade cherry jam, I'll be in heaven. The garden is still looking good, Robin! I'm a bit jealous... :) I always mean to keep extending my growing season, but… I’m usually out of energy by this time of the year, I admit.

I dug up a bunch of greens and some baby carrots, planted them in plastic shoe boxes and drove them all 1200 miles south! So far they look pretty good ;-) The way I extend my gardening season is a bit extreme.

Your garden is so beautiful. I wish I had some ideas for continuing the gardening season, but the only one I know is the microclimate against the south or east side of the house.

I do hope your cold frame works and doesn't fly off in the middle of the night. I have a fall vegetable garden but shouldn't have any problems down here in Florida with temps getting too low. I'm hoping my fall veggies are much less stressed than my spring garden ended up being. meems, hoe and shovel Robin, Your garden is most beautiful.
