Harvesting Fresh Veggies in the Snow

Harvesting Fresh Veggies in the Snow

There's nothing like harvesting fresh veggies in the snow!

The key to having more fresh food right outside your door for more months of the year is to extend your garden season.

And if you do it right, you can be harvesting delicious veggies for up to 10 months of the year, even if you live in a northern climate!

I live in Wisconsin, zone 5a, and every year I harvest food from my garden during most months of the year -without a heated greenhouse or any other expensive additions to my garden.

Imagine serving garden fresh produce straight from your yard for winter holiday dinners (I do it every year!).

With the right plan, you can grow and harvest cool season vegetables way past the first frosts of fall, into the darker months of winter, and then again in early spring when you start the gardening season earlier than you ever have before.

You’ll amaze everyone you know when you’re harvesting delicious food from your yard during harsh weather, unexpected snowstorms, and unpredictable early spring weather.

Don't miss out on the best growing months of the year! Sure, gardening in summer is fun, but it can also be challenging. It’s the season we anxiously wait for as gardeners, but it’s often filled with disappointment and heartache.

It feels like the weather just won’t cooperate, the list of insects that attack us and our gardens is endless, and things aren’t working out the way we expected.

But, what if I told you that gardening in the colder weather months of fall and winter is a completely different experience and it’s way easier.

Insects and diseases go into hibernation, weed growth is very slow, some frustrating vegetables (cilantro, arugula, spinach!) are much easier to grow in the cooler temperatures, and the gorgeous weather makes it a dream to work outside in your garden.

Don’t miss out on one of the best, and underutilized, seasons in the garden – the cold weather months.

Imagine putting in way less effort for big harvests that carry you through to November and December and can last through to March and April of the next season.

You’re just steps away from harvesting fresh veggies in the snow! Join now and get started on your cold weather garden this season.
