cold.<\/p>\n<p>The garden in August isn&#8217;t as lush and green as it was during the spring peak. \u00a0Heat and pests take a toll and as various plants mature, they are more into production than showing off lush foliage. \u00a0 Still, as we look through the garden, there is a pretty good amount to choose from for dinner and even more beginning to grow into a fall garden.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s

germinate in summer heat and mature in the cooler fall weather that is around the corner? \u00a0 Those are the veggies we will be planting this week.<\/p>\n<p>This week will close the very short window for planting for a smaller fall Irish potato crop. \u00a0 Since it is so difficult to find commercial seed potatoes in the fall, we usually save some of our spring crop just for this. \u00a0 \u00a0We&#8217;ll be planting early varieties of fingerling potatoes and a few yukon golds &#8211; and then crossing our fingers for the &#8216;just right&#8217; temperatures it will take to bring in a crop.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll also be planting the delicious Sugar Ann snow peas, Calima french beans, lettuces, mustard greens, mizuna and arugula. \u00a0 We&#8217;ll add a few more summer squashes and some early producing winter squash to fill out those rows. \u00a0 We&#8217;ll even try a couple of fall cherry tomatoes.<\/p>\n<p>In early September we&#8217;ll set out spinach, cabbages, kohlrabi, radicchio, kale, broccoli and cauliflower.<\/p>\n<p>And later. in October and November, we&#8217;ll already be starting seed for spring onions and leeks, and setting out garlic and shallots.<\/p>\n<p>Once the heat breaks &#8211; hopefully just two or three weeks away, the garden should be in full bloom again.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Don&#8217;t forget &#8211; this coming weekend is
