Plants have different requirements for temperature, water, and sunlight, so knowing when to plant specific fruits and vegetables can be tricky.  Fortunately, there are a number of great online resources available to help determine planting times based on your region.

Using the Farmer’s Almanac planting table, you can simply enter your zip code or city and planting dates will be calculated for you.  If you are going to start seeds indoors, check out the Farmer’s Almanac chart on planting indoors or outdoors based by region.
