If you are new to gardening, most likely one of your questions would be what vegetables to plant during fall and winter. And here's my top 10 list of cold-loving veggies that thrive very well here in California. The video down below will also give you an idea of how we set-up our garden, what plants are planted together and what we do with our harvest.
1) Lettuce (varieties: Romaine, Amanda and Frecked)
2) Peas (sugar snap peas and snow peas)
3) Swiss Chard (peppermint chard is my favorite)
4) Kale
5) Bokchoy, Tatsoi and Joi choi
6) Spinach
7) Beetroot or Beet (chioggia beets are my favorite)
8) Radish
9) Collard Greens
10) Broccoli, Broccolini and Broccoli Rabe
Other cold-loving crops: parsnip, kohlrabi, cabbage, carrots, garlic and onion
