There are wonderful fall crops you can start right away. The best part about fall crops is that they need less care as would a spring crop.

Weeds that you struggle with all through spring and summer will dissipate once fall settles in so you don’t have to worry about maintenance. As well, bugs will be less frequent once cooler weather comes. Another great thing is that the cool weather won’t dry out your soil so you won’t have to water frequently.

So what can you grow in the fall? Lots of great foods. You can plant carrots, lettuce, parsnips, collards, spinach and radishes. Before you know it, you will have a plentiful garden full of your favorite veggies.
