HomeblogWinter salads Peashoots keep F&F’s plates green and leafy during the winter months. These peashoot planters in my unheated greenhouse have been one of the best things about the garden this winter. They took a long time to get to the size where I could eat them - I sowed them nine weeks ago - but it really is a treat to have fresh, soft, salad leaves from the garden at this time of year. I also threw in a few sunflower seeds as well as the shoots of a young sunflower plant are delicious. Ever since I took the 52-week salad challenge a few years ago, I’ve been much better at growing and eating salads all the year round as I discovered so many new leaves I hadn’t come across before. Of course, spring and early summer are wonderful for salad growing (with late summer always a bit stressful as the hot weather can lead to many salads bolting or struggling). But winter isn’t all bad either. Visit the Good Growing Guide for tips on how to grow salads and all the most popular vegetables.
