You CAN Grow These Frost-Resistant Vegetables in Winter! Garden Tour

John from http://www.GrowingYourGreens.com takes you on a winter garden tour in Las Vegas, showing how he successfully grows fresh food year-round, even in the desert’s cold months. Many people believe it’s impossible to grow in Vegas winters because local nurseries stop selling vegetable starts, but John proves that with the right techniques, you can have a thriving garden even in the off-season. In this episode, you’ll see how I’ve planted my entire winter garden, filled with nutrient-dense leafy greens, root vegetables, and hardy herbs that flourish in cooler temperatures. From frost-resistant kale and collard greens to fast-growing mustard greens and napa cabbage, I’ll walk you through each raised bed and share what’s working best in my climate. I’ll also reveal some of my favorite cold-tolerant varieties, like red veined sorrel and komatsuna, which provide a steady supply of fresh greens throughout the season. As we explore my backyard, I’ll show you my approach to maximizing productivity with strategic planting techniques, self-watering containers, and a simple yet effective composting system. You’ll also learn how I protect my more delicate crops from occasional frosts, including a unique method of using Christmas tree lights to keep certain plants warm. Even in the coldest part of the season, I’m still harvesting vibrant greens, herbs, and even flowering plants like rosemary, which attracts pollinators year-round. One of the highlights of this tour is the diversity of plants growing in my space. Beyond common winter vegetables, I also experiment with unusual crops like longevity spinach, tree collards, and edible flowers, adding both beauty and nutrition to my garden. Whether you’re gardening in a desert climate or just looking for winter-friendly crops to grow, this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you succeed. By the end of this tour, I hope you’re inspired to embrace winter gardening and take advantage of the cooler months to grow fresh, healthy food. If I can do it in the dry, challenging conditions of Las Vegas, so can you! Keep on growing, and remember—gardening is all about adapting, experimenting, and finding what works best for your environment.
