Fall Garden Practices For Adequate Winter Diets
Extension advice urges every home to plant a fall garden to feed families through fall and winter. Soil should be weed free, plowed 3 to 4 inches, seedbed smoothed to restore capillary action and moisture at the surface. Plant frost tolerant crops in September and use insecticides such as Calcium Arsenate Black Leaf 40 or nicotine arsenate mixtures to control cabbage worm lice and other pests.
