What To Plant Now: December 20-27

We just passed the Cold Moon, a name used by the Mohawk people, this Moon occurs when winter cold fastens its grip.
We are now going into a waning period of the Moon—from the day after it is full to the day before it is new again. As the moonlight decreases night by night, plants are encouraged to grow roots, tubers, and bulbs. It’s always best to try to plant with the coming rains which are in the forecast.
