Planting in the Summer Vegetable Garden for Fall Harvest - 8/13/23

Today we plant a bed of carrots, radishes and turnips. We plant 2 beds of bush beans. I also harvest some beets, peppers, tomatoes, eggplant and zucchini for meals. Thanks for watching, Dawn & Tom My husband is a contractor, so you may see us doing things a little different and using some of our construction tools in the garden. Our vegetable garden is set up using the Elliot Coleman method of 30 inch wide beds with 18 inch wide walking paths. The beds have been in these locations for almost 15 years. We just rotate crops and amend the soil as needed. Thanks to books like The Winter Harvest Handbook and The Market Gardener. Plus, with the use of our hoop house and covering beds we garden as close to year round as we can. We rely heavily on tee posts, Hortonova FA trellis netting and we plant as much as we can in landscape weed fabric.
