An updated version of Gardening: Vegetables in Wyoming, publication B-1115R, is available for download as a PDF, HTML or ePub at http://bit.ly/wyo-grow-vegetables.

“The basic information was still valid, but varieties change all the time,” said Karen Panter, University of Wyoming Extension horticulture specialist. “We’ve updated variety information to include more recent introductions.”

Tips in this publication include crop selection, soil preparation and irrigation.

“It’s geared toward homeowners across Wyoming, especially now when more people are trying to be more self-sufficient,” said Panter.
