Vegetable crops are classified as either ‘warm-season’ or ‘cool-season’ according to their optimum planting time. Warm-season crops are generally planted after the last frost in spring and harvested by the first freeze in autumn, but vary in the specific horticultural practices needed for optimum production.

Join Matt Jones (Extension Horticulture Agent) for a webinar targeting home and community gardeners on how to grow warm-season vegetables. Participants will learn about the basics of vegetable gardening, including site selection, types of beds, and fertility management. We will also cover planting techniques, best varieties, common problems, and harvesting methods for cucumbers, okra, peppers, eggplant, southern peas, and tomatoes.
