What to sow in July. Easy to grow food. What can I sow in July? Here are some seeds to sow in July for continued harvesting throughout the year and a self-sufficient vegetable garden. Seed details below. Gardening tips for July. If you are wondering which seeds to sow in the garden or sow on the allotment in mid summer, or what vegetables can I plant in July, here are a few ideas. We live in the equivalent of hardiness Zone 8b, so I think it's safe to say we are growing in zone 8.

About Us.
Byther Farm is a small organic homestead, designed and managed using permaculture practices. We aim for self-sufficiency in fruit and vegetables for increased self reliance and better resilience to the modern world. I recognise that we are unlikely to be truly self sufficient, but do the best we can. I share our home with my loving partner, Mr J and our cat, Monty.
We are a fifty-something couple who live on a smallholding in Monmouthshire, Wales. We are going green and creating a gentler, cleaner and more healthy life for our family.
There is a large organic kitchen garden with no dig gardening raised beds and young food forest in which to grown our fruit and vegetables.
We keep chickens and Aylesbury ducks.

I, too, have a suppressed immune system. I am fighting a fungus in my lung. Thank God it wasn't lung cancer. The Mayo Clinic is treating me for the fungus cryptoccus. I am a hobby gardener all my life. I am 67 years old. (It will be a hard day when I quit making compost. HA!) Well, the short of the story is, I talked to my doctor and he advised wearing gloves, long sleeves, and even a mask if directly handling manure of any kind and don't forget the hat and sunblock. It takes me some time to get prepared to go to the "Garden of Weedin'. I'm still keeping my hobby of my wonderful No Dig Garden. Thank you! Good health!

Almost everything planted is a test crop, but I have 13 varieties of beans, Egyptian Onions, Collards, Tree Tomatoes, dwarf Honeynut Squash, Hamburg Parsley, carrots, basil, Big Leaf Tong Ho, Swiss Chard, Day Lilly's, Dwarf Peas, Miniature Corn, Zucchini, Water Cress, Russet Potatoes, Potato Mint and Jerusalem Artichokes. I tried planting Sunflowers in succession, but none of them have gotten taller than a foot before meeting their end. I suspect a squirrel.

Liz, thank you for suggesting what can be started this time of the year in a garden. I started taking an interest in raised bed gardening about a year ago. My son suggested that I check out the gardening channels on KZfaq to learn how to start a raised bed. I was amazed by all the knowledge and suggestion on how to do everything from building the frame to developing the soil, how to control pest infestation in the garden without using harmful pesticides. But what impressed me the most is the Gardening Community, how credit is given to others who started a certain way of growing seed or multi planting or no dig methods. I would like to say Kudos to all that set such a good example of sharing your growing knowledge and i am looking forward to viewing more of your videos.

I can't believe you give away the leaves from your Swiss Chard! I like to steam the chard stalks and leaves with beet greens. Then I fry a chopped shallot in olive and chile oil, add the steamed greens and chop them with a C-shaped chef's knife in the pan. I add cheddar cheese to this until it melts, and then mix the whole thing with potatoes, either fried potatoes or steamed. This is my favorite meal and is very healthy unless you are someone who needs to avoid oxalates due to a problem with kidney stones. I compost my beets, though. Hate the sugary taste of those, but love the beet greens!

Very nice video and I agree all the previous kind comments. One thought: I was surprised to hear that you feel the need to freeze parsley. Parsley is biennial and I find it winters well. Although I live in a relatively mild climate I have brushed snow off parsley after its first year and underneath the leaves were perfectly fresh. At the beginning of year two you can get some new parsley going ready for when the year one crop goes to seed.

I cannot for the life of me grow Parsley. Year after year after year I sow it and it stays small and pathetic. Ditto for shop bought that is planted out. Tiny garden, limited space and light and no chance of an allotment. Not to mention all the pests that seem to find their way into this small area. You are so blessed to have that space. I'm lucky if my Chard gets as long as my hand (oh and not to mention beet leaf miner, in fact many forms of leaf miner plague my plants) And I don't use chemicals or pesticides at all.

Liz, I think it's a good idea to for everyone to wear gloves, especially if they're handling any manure or crop amendment! I started wearing them after I got a really bad rash from a fertilizer containing rock dust. I've also read papers that suggest that bonemeal and feathermeal from chickens that you can get from garden centers has a pretty significant chance of being contaminated with Salmonella. It's hard because some soil microbes can be very beneficial and even relieve depression, but others can be very vicious like Anthrax. Definitely keep safe w/ gloves and get your beneficial microbes from eating your washed veggies (lot of good microbes still remain even after washing)!
