Mid November..the season goes on and on!

By now most gardeners in New England may have hung up their tools. The only things left to harvest may be carrots that can be left in the ground all winter. Just cover them with a thick layer of mulch before the ground freezes. You can then reach through the mulch and pull a carrot or two..that is until the snow is too deep!
Kale happily grows in the cold. Brassicas (cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower), beets, lettuce and leeks can manage some cold. 

Broccoli heads forming!

Broccoli and sage plants not in cold frame as they can manage cold. 

My goal: keep harvesting at the Rotary Garden site in Lowell into mid to late December and to commence growing in March.

I've constructed a "tunnel" over my garden. Withing the tunnel is a cold frame. Plants in the cold frame will enjoy double protection.

Ready for the cold!

Opened up on a warm day.

Seedlings, beets, arugula, carrot and lettuce, developing.

My other garden plots are cleaned-up and put away for the winter. I'll not return to the North Chelmsford plot..too much running around. 
The South Chelmsford garden at Sunny Meadow Farm is a keeper. I've gardened there four years. The soil is in great shape now.
The pea bed is prepared for planting as soon as possible in the spring.
Lots was learned from this year's experiences. For instance, no root crops in South Chelmsford. The voles will need to find food elsewhere.
No potatoes this year. I've just got too many! But more tomato plants!  
Corn needs consistent moisture!!
More photos as winter progresses.
