Most people think you can't plant in the fall in the vegetable garden, but they are wrong. Garlic makes a great through-the-winter crop. You want to plant it long enough before the ground freezes to let it establish, but it will bee a small bit of green in your garden through the harshest winters. It will stay small until the thaw, but will then grow to its mature size around June. Here gardener Peter Richards shows how to plant garlic.
