Summer Garden tasks

Help your plants out this summer by mulching and keeping an eye out for insects like squash vine borers and tomato hornworms. It's an especially good time for 2 of our heat loving veggies, okra and southern peas (like black-eye, cowpeas, purple hull, and cream peas) and also start thinking about planting pumpkins for a fall harvest.
For areas you're not planting right away or where you want to build the soil, there are many options for warm season cover crops like buckwheat, southern peas (and you can eat them!) and millet
