Austrian master gardener (and head of the Austria’s Research Institute of Horticulture) Wolfgang Palme is trying to help people learn to garden all year round. His garden routinely gets temperatures below zero yet still flourishes.
In an interview with Reasons to Be Cheerful, Palme said he discovered “winter farming” after a batch of Asian lettuce in his garden unexpectedly survived an early frost. He has literally laid out a series of techniques that helps you grow salad greens, carrots, peas, and more vegetables all winter.
