Fall crops are plants that are grown during the autumn season, typically sown in late summer or early fall. These crops thrive in cooler temperatures and can withstand light frosts. Common fall crops include kale, broccoli, carrots, and pumpkins, which are often harvested in late fall. Growing fall crops can extend the gardening season and provide fresh produce when summer crops are no longer available. Many fall crops, like brussels sprouts and turnips, actually taste better after a frost, as the cold weather enhances their sweetness. Proper planning and care can lead to a successful fall harvest.
