Super Starts is proud to be a vendor at the 50th Annual Antique Faire & Flea Market in Niles Historic District Niles Town Plaza, 37592 Niles Blvd, Fremont, CA 94536 on Sunday, August 31, 2014 from 6am to 4pm. Fall is a wonderful time of year to plant a garden. So many varieties do well as the days get cooler and I do say gardening is a little easier in the fall. Lettuces, kale and other greens, cauliflower, peas, and perennial herbs can all be planted in the fall with success. Look for our plant list in the next week or so and we will see you at the Niles Antique Faire & Flea Market.

Summer Squash

Harvest when squash are still small, while the skin is still tender and the seeds inside are undeveloped for the best flavor.
Summer squash are delicious tossed with fresh herbs and oven roasted. Also try sauteing them with butter and a little sugar for a very sweet treat! The flowers are edible and are great in soup or stuffed with cheese, herbs, and bread crumbs, brushed with olive oil and baked.

Tomato 'Vilma'
These very compact plants are great for containers and even hanging baskets. They would even be an interesting accent to garden borders as an edible/ornamental plant. They grow to about 24-inches tall, and produce a heavy crop of sweet and juicy, cherry tomatoes each weighing 20g. over a long picking period.
In containers use fresh, good quality potting soil. Supplement plants every few weeks with a liquid vegetable fertilizer to keep plants green and producing nicely. Or, plant in the garden in full sun, in soil amended with compost and a good quality vegetable fertilizer. Space plants 10-12 inches apart.
Harvest when fruits are fully colored up and slightly soft to the touch.
