Reading the season in Belle Glade
With roughly 354 frost-free days, Belle Glade gardens fit long-season crops — melons, winter squash, sweet potatoes — with room left for spring and fall rounds of greens and roots. The first frost around Jan 16 is late enough that fall planting is a full second season, not an afterthought.
