COOL SEASON VEGETABLES
Planting a Cool Season Vegetable Garden ensures your family eats healthy all year long! Often planted in early October, these plants take advantage of the more temperate Fall and Winter climates. From the time of planting through April, vegetables like Broccoli, Cauliflower, Peas, Leeks, Salad Greens, and Carrots thrive in the cool, even cold. We encourage gardeners to plan their Cool Season Gardens in Elk Grove, California in advance. Big Oak Nursery has a wide variety of Fall Vegetable Garden starter plants for you to choose from.
