This episode describes garden tasks including what to grow for a fall crop in August in the Chicago area. Depending upon the source you consult Chicago is in USDA Hardiness Zones 5 or 6. Or as we say during our podcast series hardiness zone 5/6. Here are few links for plants to consider growing for fall gardens that should be transplanted from seedlings and/or direct sown from seeds. If you have questions, require more information, or want to share your fall gardening experiences send an email to Orrin Williams at orrinw@uic.edu. Thank you for listening in!
