You can plant lettuce, onions, and garlic now; check with your local nurseries; they might have more suggestions! This is what I plant now though.
Although it is raining today, it has been really warm still here; so I plant my lettuces where they get a lot of shade. Plant a lot of different varieties; there is "nothing" as good as a salad from your own garden!

RE: Late Summer Vegetables

Now is a good time to plant a second season of veggies, all kinds of peas (purple hull, pink eye, black eyed), and snap beans (green beans). Go to your county extension site, they should have all this info there for all the time gardening. You may ask them to send you all info they have on gardening, free. Good luck. (08/25/2009)
