Spring Planting Tips

  • Get a jump on the planting season (and save some money) by starting vegetable seeds indoors. You can start lettuce, spinach, brassicas such as broccoli or cauliflower, and most other vegetables inside now to be ready to plant in 6 to 8 weeks. In addition to seed packets and vegetable starts found at your local nurseries, consider researching seed companies in order to add variety to the vegetables you are able to grow.
  • Be sure to wait to plant outside until mid-May to early June unless you plan to protect tender crops from frost. Our last frost date (the day you can reliably count on frost-free nights) is June 1.

We Can Help You

  • Remember, we have a team of volunteers available to help out with your Grow, Eat (and Sell!) project. Feel free to contact us with questions or suggestions. The Tehachapi AFA is willing to try to help find the answers to any inquiries you might have.

Can You Help Us?

  • We need you. We are working to promote food, farming, and and a strong local economy. We need your ideas about how to protect the future of agriculture in the Tehachapi area. Consider joining the Tehachapi Ag Futures Alliance as a member. We meet monthly.
