Many people think that if you don't have everything planted right now, June 24, then you are too late to plant for the season. NOT SO! There are all kinds of things to plant throughout the summer. It's also a good idea to "stagger" your planting so you have crops coming up all different times during the growing season, and not all at once.
Below are just some of the seeds you can plant in July and August:
