Gracie I put a fall garden in for the past 5 or 6 years. I compost all year long for great soil to add to the garden. This year I had sweet corn, green beans, tomatoes, yellow and zuchinni squash, cabbage, lettuce, green onions, collards, green peppers and kale.
This years garden was the best..takes a few years for the soil to get good...everything did well except the squash...the bugs are hard to keep off them. I won't do corn again too hard to keep the worms off them and a hassle. All in all the freezer is stocked up.. Don't do spring or summer gardens just too dang hot.
