fall gardening

Now's the time to start thinking about your fall and winter garden,  plant seed directly in the soil, and transplant seedlings into your vegetable beds.  Although it's too late in the season to start seeds yourself in six-plant to transplant in 6-8 when the seedlings are big enough, the topic of how to seed in six-packs and care for seedlings will be covered.

Join Master Gardeners to learn about which vegetables to plant, and learn tips on how to grow for best success. Check out our Warm and Cool Season Vegetable Planting Guidelines for info on when to seed directly, when to start seeds in six-packs or other containers and when to transplant seedlings:  http://mastergardeners.org/warm-cool-veg-charts
