I love your chart. It gives month by month sowing. Could you also show what to harvest which month? I left some carrotts for too long and when I pulled them they were hairy… had to clean them for the longest time. ha!
Any possibility of including dyer’s and fiber artists’ garden plants as well….. such as Woad, Madder, Indigo, Flax, and Colored cottons?
Thank you,
