The Old Farmer’s Almanac has a planting schedule. Put your zip code in and it will tell you what to plant from spring through fall. It tells you when to sow indoors and plant in the ground, but also when to harvest—and is customized to your location based on the nearest weath- er station. The planting calendar covers the 30 most popular vegetables, herbs, and fruit. You can download it for free: http://www.almanac.com/gardening/planting- dates/zipcode/72653
