Zone 5 has slightly longer growing window for gardening compared to Zones 3 and 4. With a last frost date of approx May 1st and first frost date of approx September 15. First and last frost days may vary by 2 weeks (or more depending on the weather).

If you'd like to get a jump-start on Spring and Fall planting, it is possible to extend your season by starting seeds indoors. A simple setup might be a shop light over a table or as elaborate as a heated greenhouse or multiple racks with lights. We hope that our USDA Zone Specific SEED planting guide with be a helpful tool in your garden planning and planting!
