Winter gardening often feels like an uphill battle. Shorter days, unpredictable weather, and freezing temperatures can leave even the most dedicated gardeners feeling limited in their options. Traditional outdoor gardening during the cold season demands careful planning, the right tools, and often a considerable investment in cold-weather infrastructure like greenhouses or row covers. For many growers, it’s just not feasible—but that doesn’t mean you have to give up on harvesting fresh, homegrown produce.
