Planting the fall/winter garden

Hi, we are planting the fall garden, fall winter garden, because our winter gardens will live until the spring here, fortunately for our growing season

Today we're going to plant carrots of two kinds of carrots. We're going to plant sweet peas because our grandson loves sweet peas

We've got three kinds of cabbage. We've got two kinds of spinach, mustard greens, kale, brussels sprouts, broccoli and cauliflower

flower, turnip greens, and radishes. So that's what we're going to be planting today

We're going to be planting in our raised beds. And then I've got a round raised bed over in the middle

that we're going to plant the carrots in. Carrots want that loose, loose soil. And they do really

well in those. So that's what we're going to be doing. This is a high raised bed. I have some

back issues And so a friend of ours built this forest It not all dirt We did some hugiculture are under their limbs and leaves and chunks of logs that had fallen down in a storm So it going to be nourishing itself as time goes by Got a lot of

volunteer zineas coming up. I'm going to have to move out of the way. I cannot do anything about

my bell pepper. I want it to live as long as it can. So I'm going to leave it in the middle and then

pull it up when the frost comes. Same thing with my Scotchbonnet peppers over here in this bed

with the okra but I won't be planting anything falling there still got a few pumpkins making

and the okra is still producing so I'm just going to let that bed rest this winter and replenish it

but I'm not pulling them up until the frost kills them because those peppers are excellent

producers so now we're just going to get oh these uh a lot of people when they do the

script but gardening have strings and we did the first year but these little markers that my husband

put in there for me to know my feet I just go by them now so

Don't have to put new string out every year. So that's what I'm going to be doing this morning

Happy gardening to you
