If you can’t garden outdoors in the winter, plant dishtubs of greens and tomatoes, etc and put in a sunny window.

You will be surprised how good they will taste.

Some of the oriental greens were not hurt by the snow that I had for several days, I brushed it off and and pinched leaves.

I’ve had stuff buried in snow all winter survive, and continue growing when the snow melted. Lettuce one year and onions this year. Getting to them is a problem, though during the winter.
