Year-round vegetable gardening is integral to creating a foodsystem whose values reflect seasonality, locality and clean food. To take full advantage of the unique gardening climate in San Francisco, it’s important to know your vegetable garden’s needs each month. Join GFE and Carey Craddock as we take a closer look at what to do in your garden in May to ensure you reap a harvest that will afford you Victory Gardener status. This month will focus on planning ahead for your winter garden, summer pests & diseases to look out for, what seeds to start indoors and outdoors, as well as a tour of what’s growing at the GFE in June.
