Let's Talk Cold Hardy Crops. I know it might seem counter intuitive to plant a garden when you know there is a strong chance that you will still see temps below freezing or potential for more snow, but I have good news. Farmers for generations have been doing this and that is where we get the guidance for our friends, the COLD Hardy Crops. They can withstand short bouts of freezing temps, they can withstand a dump of snow here or there, they definitely can withstand frost without frost cover. I see so many gardeners going to extra efforts to protect their cold hardy crops and they simply do not require it from my experience and I would expect if they needed protection or delay in setting them out we would have different planting guidance. I don't want you to miss out of the fullness of your gardening seasons, especially up here in the Northern Zones where taking advantage of this period could mean an entire crop rotation difference.
Hope you find some encouragement in me showing you my results and that everything survived freezing temps and 3 inches of snow JUST FINE!
