VegGarden365 - So.California

VegGarden365 is a planting guide from the Environmental Change-Makers of Los Angeles.

In Southern California, you can harvest vegetables every month of the year! The trick is knowing what to plant when.

No, you can’t necessarily grow awesome tomatoes 365 days a year. But with Southern California’s mild climate and no frosts / light frosts, cool season crops during the winter months can be wildly productive.

With this handy guide in your pocket, you’ll instantly know the answers:
“What seeds should I plant in October?”
“When should I plant snowpeas?”
“How deeply should I plant Swiss chard seeds?”
“Are my radish seeds too old?”
“What is the best spacing for lettuce plants?”

Includes:
12 month schedule for year-round harvests
40+ common vegetable plants
customized for SoCalif warm season, cool season, hot season
planting times
plant spacing
planting depth
guild / companion planting
seed viability

How to use:
Select the “Months” index to figure out what to plant this month.
Select the “Plants” index to find out details about a particular vegetable, such as when to plant it, plant spacing, and much more.

How do I know it will work?
The Environmental Change-Makers community group runs the Community Garden at Holy Nativity, in the Westchester neighborhood of Los Angeles. The Change-Makers have harvested from this garden nearly every week, year-round, since June 2008.

With VegGarden365, you hold the planting schedule which has made all those harvests possible.
