In tough times folks start thinking about planting vegetables. As I’m too angry to blog this morning I thought that instead of a rant I’d post a few useful links for Californians on how to start a vegetable garden.
All gardening advice is local. One of the tricky things about California is that we live in a Mediterranean climate and most of the information on what, how and when to plant vegetables is written for places where it snows. So here’s a few links courtesy of our Extension Service that should help you get started with your vegetable garden:
Burpee California Planting Guide
Vegetable Gardening Handbook for Beginners (by friend of the blog Yvonne Savio)
Sacramento Vegetable Planting Guide
UC Master Gardeners of San Mateo & San Francisco Monthy Garden Checklist
San Joaquin Valley Planting Guide
San Diego Vegetable Planting Guide
Happy growing!
