Never have planted a fall garden, but vowed to have SOMETHING growing this Fall, so I planted some black-eyed peas last weekend. They came up in 4 days! I really should have planted them a few weeks ago, but it's been too hot to work. On another note, my husband helped me move my greenhouse off the slab it was on and to an area where I can plant directly into the ground, so I'm really looking forward to growing something in there past the frost date! Maybe tomatoes, then as it gets colder I will go with some salad fixings, etc.
We could use a rain now, but not nearly as bad off as some others.

We are going to plant some beans, beets, spinach and lettuce for fall.
Later I will plant the winter garden. Lettuce, spinach, garlic, and onions. This will eventually be covered with row cover and straw.
In October, after the first frost, we will plant winter wheat and red clover in February.
