"Four-season growing” is the ultimate goal for many gardeners. Eliot Coleman has mastered it, and he’s doing it in one of the farthest corners of the country, in weather that often makes gardening in even one season a challenge. The methods Eliot and his wife use to grow year-round in Zone 5 are ones you can use to extend your season, too, no matter where you live.
