Planting a Salad Garden

Salad Garden for the Winter

Although I've put the main garden area to rest for the winter, I'm putting the finishing touches on a container salad garden. There's nothing like cutting or pulling fresh produce, straight from the garden, to reinforce the salad habit that we all need during the winter months. The vibrant freshness just can't be beat.

Here are my recommendations for what to include in the salad garden:

* Butter lettuce

* Romaine lettuce

 * Green leaf lettuce

 * Red leaf lettuce

 * Mâche 

 * Arugula

 * Carrots

 * Radishes

 * Snap Peas

* Curly parsley

Other cool-weather crops that you might enjoy in your salads include broccoli, cauliflower (fussier to grow, though), kale, and beets. Bon appetit!

Pleasures of Fall Gardening

Fall Gardening: Feeling the Love

Ahhh: fall is here. The air is cooler, the weather crisper. In many areas, fall is an ideal time for a second-chance garden, especially if the summer garden has sputtered out. The energy-sapping heat is gone. Now is the time for an invigorating gardening season.

Now is the time to create a salad garden: many types of lettuces and cabbages. What is more perfect than cutting salad greens mere minutes before washing them and putting them in the salad bowl? Root vegetables are also a great choice this season: carrots, beets, radishes, even parsnips. Onions and leeks, as well as broccoli, are also fine choices for the fall garden.

Fall gardening also is a good excuse to get outdoors for some fresh air and exercise. Fresh vegetables, fresh air, and invigorating exercise: what more could you want? Dream big!
