As the weather cools down, don't think that your vegetable garden needs to be put out to pasture. In this episode of
Fresh From the Garden, host Joe Lamp'l shows you how to extend your harvest by planting Florence fennel and bok choi, two crops that thrive in cool weather. He explains the difference between the bulb-forming Florence fennel and the fennel that is grown as an herb; after starting the seed indoors, he transplants the small seedlings into the garden.
He'll also give you clever tips on how to deal with slugs in your garden. In the Homegrown Hint, he'll show you how to create a beautiful but simple butterfly garden.
