The onion family including regular, red or white salad onions, spring onions, chives and garlic are ideal to plant out during the cooler months. Beetroot, broccoli, carrots, potatoes, spinach and cabbage are some others who love autumn and winter months.
Peas are also a great option this time of year. They are easy to grow from seed, and germinate quickly so it is a great way to get kids excited about growing their own food, especially if you get a variety they can eat as soon as they are picked like sugar snap peas. Yum!
