VEGETABLE PLANTING CALENDAR 



The dates given apply to the vicinity of Philadelphia and sections with similar growing conditions. 

 They are based on the ground becoming workable some time in March with expectancy of frost being 

 passed by mid-April. Light fall frost in early October and heavy frost in late October regulate the 

 end of the growing season. For every 100 miles north sow one week later in the spring and one 

 week earlier after June 30. Reverse the procedure for every 100 miles southward.
