Garden dreamin': Tips for early garden plotting

Submitted by ChrisMarie on Feb 18 2016

Living on the mile-high plains of Colorado, after growing up in the mid-Atlantic area, learning to grow veggies at any time of year is challenging! The hail, quick temperature changes, snow on Mother's Day and early autumn freezes make things interesting.
