About this Event

Ready to extend your growing season and enjoy fresh, homegrown harvests well into the cooler months?

Late August and early September are the absolute sweet spots for sowing winter vegetable crops in coastal North Carolina. This timely presentation will teach you how to get your cool-weather greens and root veggies established while the soil is still warm enough for quick germination, but the summer heat is finally beginning to back down. By starting now, you give your plants a critical foothold to mature before our first predicted freeze arrives in mid-November.

Whether you are a seasoned grower or a beginner looking to try your hand at a second growing season, this class will provide the practical, research-based steps you need for a bountiful winter harvest.
