RE: Overwintering Spinach

Spinach is one of my favorite greens. Its seems like I couldn't get it to grow properly for a couple of years, but now its one of our staples. We do have an unheated high tunnel to grow it in though, to extend the season.

Yeah, it’s one of my favorites too. So diverse and flavorful. Can’t get ebough of it sautéed with a bit of salt and butter. We juice it, add it to smoothies and eat it fresh in salads as well. I’ve had zero success growing it in the spring. Maybe there are some climates where that works well, but not here, unless it’s overwintered. Fall is usually the tastiest spinach with the chill bringing out all the sugar.
