Winter is supposed to be a good time to plant in the desert, but truth be told, it feels too cold to plant right now! According to my planting calendar, however, it’s actually a great time for lettuce-type veggies and root vegetables. I started some beets, radishes and carrots about a month ago — along with some lettuce in my salad table, but plan on adding some more seeds.
