2. Blackberries and Raspberries

Caneberries, such as blackberries and raspberries, provide tasty fruits for you and your family, and provide treats for birds and butterflies. Pruning is important, but nature keeps that simple, too. Learn how to grow blackberries and raspberries, including how to prune.

3. Cabbage

For most gardeners, summer comes too fast to grow cool-loving cabbage from seed. Even if summer arrives before you have prepared to plant cabbage seeds, you can still plant mid to late summer, and you’ll have a bountiful crop come fall. Learn all about homegrown red cabbage, including making kraut!

4. Cucumbers

Vining cucumbers require some space, unless you grow them in containers. Add a trellis, and your crop stays healthier and more productive. For a taste of summer, learn more about growing cucumbers, in containers and in the ground.

5. Garlic

Garlic can be planted in spring, but fall-planted garlic leads to bigger, better crops. Be sure garlic is treated to enough chilly weather while growing or the bulb-like heads won’t separate into cloves. Learn all about growing delicious garlic at home.

6. Strawberries

Strawberries are flavorful edibles that come back year after year. You can choose from many types. Some send out “runners” that root and create baby plants, increasing your patch for free. Learn how to grow your own tasty strawberries in your home garden.

7. Tomatoes

Whether you like big, beefy tomatoes or tiny cherry and grape types, these heat-loving tropicals are simple to grow in large decorative containers or veggie plots. Plant cages help keep them healthy and make harvests easier. Just follow these easy steps to grow your own tomatoes.

8. Zucchini and Squash

Plant zucchini and other squash seeds straight into your garden at the end of spring planting season. Eat soft-skinned squash when ripe; store thick-skinned squash into winter. Learn about growing zucchini and squash, including their edible blossoms.
