Kale, collard, chicory, peas, carrots, cabbage, lettuce, arugula, fava
beans,beets. Make a google search for "cool weather vegetables". Also
make a search for "preparing the home garden". Basically, you need to
know your pH, you need to break the ground if it is too hard, you need
some manure, or you need compost and some chemical fertilizer, and you
need a way to water the garden. For each vegetable, google "carrot
cultivation in the home garden". and you will find out that these are
best directly seeded in light soil and not given much fertilizer
(translation: forget carrots if you have heavy soil). Other veggies can
be sown in little pots indoors and transplanted later.
