   I’m in the higher part of AZ, in Kingman. Would you recommend me get a tarp? Or do you think that would sheild out too much sun? I’m a beginning garderner. What fruits or vegetables do you find grow best in desert? Nice garden by the way!

   Generally a good time to plant nursery starts is in Feb here in the desert. Make sure to look for varieties that are 65 days or less. A few good ones are early girl and champion.
   Another great way to learn about desert gardening is joining the Phoenix Permaculture Guild. They offer classes and are a great group of people.

   Hi-My suggestion is read all you can on Arizona gardening starting with a book called Extreme Gardening by Dave (can’t remember his last name) A fantastic group to join online or take classes is Phoenix Permaculture Guild. They have really affordable beginning gardening glasses. I hope this helps. Happy Gardening!
