How to Plan a Fall Garden

Growing a fall garden is easy, but you will need to plan it a few weeks before planting and many weeks before the first autumn frost. Understanding your first frost date and how long plants need to grow until harvest are important factors. Gardener Scott discusses how and when to plan a fall garden and when you should plant for fall. (Video #188)
