Best Vegetables for Fall Growing:
Kale – Nutritious leafy greens on productive plants that
over-winter easily even in cold climates.
Collards – Another leafy green similar to kale but with
larger, stronger flavored leaves.
Lettuce – Plant varieties bred especially for growing during
the fall season or in cold frames.
Spinach – Not as easy to grow as kale and collards, these
leafy greens will also over-winter.
Turnips – Here’s a quick maturing root crop that’s
productive and easy to grow.
Rutabagas – Larger and sweeter than turnips, plant earlier
in the summer for fall harvests.
Broccoli – Popular, productive and much easier to grow than
cauliflower.
Cauliflower – Finicky grower, planting must be timed well in
order to develop large heads.
Mustard – Spicy hot leaves, this is a very fast growing
vegetable.
Mache – Very cold hardy, mild greens can be grown right into
the winter months.
Cabbage – Grow from transplants (like broccoli and
cauliflower) or start seeds indoors under lights.
Oriental Vegetables – Wide range of unusual varieties are
available for fall production.
Escarole – A bitter leafy green vegetable that can be cooked
or used raw as a salad green.
Endive – Similar to escarole with attractive frilly leaves.
Brussels sprouts – Start seed in early summer or purchase
transplants.
Arugula – Fast growing leafy greens for salads or gourmet
recipes.
Leeks – One of the hardiest plants in the garden, leeks can
even withstand winter freezes.
Until next time!
