Hence, we plant them in the fall for harvest in December and January.patsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12570517928939568824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4359618907926889520.post-57317246008743969602018-01-20T09:10:31.975-05:002018-01-20T09:10:31.975-05:00WE grow collards in the spring as well as in the f...WE grow collards in the spring as well as in the fall.
