Very challenging and rewarding. Leaks do sound delicious.
A number of crops do quite well later in the season. Cabbage, kale, brussel sprouts, spinach and some lettuces would grow well then. Plus the ones you mentioned. Most need to be started in August by seed or transplants. It takes them longer to mature in the shortening days and the cooler temperatures. and they’ll taste so good ‘out of season’.
You’d probably like reading Eliot Coleman’s book “Four Season Harvest”.
bye now, Judy

I pulled one tonight for a stir fry and it was as fresh as the summer. We are really starting to think about the stages of the garden for next year. Maybe we can plant radishes, onions and potatoes for late season vegetables along with the leak.
