Is it OK to plant a veggie garden now? The answer is Yes, as long as you stick to the winter crops. Some of the best ones for now are broccoli, cabbage, carrots, and many others.
The Master Gardeners are available in the Plant Clinic to answer questions about Vegetable Gardening! We have copies of the UF Florida Vegetable Gardening Calendar, publications and books. This is a vital resource for anyone wanting to grow any veggies!
If you have always wanted to learn more about your own gardening problems, the Plant Clinic is the perfect place to visit. Master Gardeners are ready to help you with research base information.
