The Best Spring Vegetables to Grow

The spring and early summer is the time that most people plant their gardens. The warm weather, sunshine, and soft ground make it an ideal time for planting. Your garden is unique to you. You can plant whatever you like in it. Think about the types of vegetables that you cook with the most and plant those. That typically gives you the most satisfaction and bang for your buck. However, you may be asking “What vegetables grow best in the spring”? The answer is as follows:


  • Peas
  • Broccoli
  • Carrots
  • Lettuce
  • Arugula
  • Cabbage


This is not an exhaustive list, but it covers some of the more popular options. These veggies tend to be more frost-tolerant which can be a concern in early spring. They also do not grow well in the hot summer months. The heat causes them to develop unpleasant tastes or textures, even reducing the size that the vegetables grow.
