Fall seed crops are in – start your cold weather veggies and greens now and up to a few weeks before the fall frost date. In Brooklyn this is anywhere between October 21st and November 21st. Many are ‘frost tolerant’ so you can still harvest well into November on a number of varieties, but if you are feeling a little lazy we have some already started, then all you have to do is start thinning out those delicious sprouts, Yum.
