January 30, 2019 - In our gardens, there are various ways of increasing crop harvest. One of those ways is succession planting. It is simply the planning and planting of varieties that will mature in a succession as companion plants. The goal is to extend your harvest by staggering plantings of crops or planting varieties with staggered maturing dates.
The Mariposa Master Gardeners are offering a FREE “Succession Planting” workshop:
