When Pam Peirce created a plan for planting a year-round food garden, she realized that gardeners often miss one of the resulting four seasons-January through March. She named it The Secret Season. It’s a time in which rain will supplement or replace your watering efforts and when pests are least active.The resulting harvests will give you delicious garden produce long before your summer harvest is underway. Pam will show you what to plant (including some unusual choices), how to avoid having to garden on cold, rainy days, and special tips for the best use of our region’s Secret Season.
Pam Peirce is a gardener, author, photographer, and lecturer. The fourth (30th Anniversary) edition of her classic regional gardening book, Golden Gate Gardening, was published in August 2023. It teaches year-round food gardening in mediterranean California from the foggy coast of Eureka to San Luis Obispo, to hot inland climates like Walnut Creek or San Jose. Her book Wildly Successful Plants covers botany and best use of 50 plucky, historic, mid-California ornamentals.
Pam earned a BA in plant science, taught horticulture at City College of San Francisco for nearly 30 years, and lectures and writes widely on gardening and food issues. You can follow her future appearances on her website: pampeirce.com, which also provides a link to her blog.
