What's different about gardening in New Haven

Gardening in New Haven, CT is shaped by a pronounced freeze season: normal mean temperatures at New Haven Tweed run from 30.5°F in January to 73.9°F in July, with 41.79 inches of annual precipitation. The normal includes 102.3 days annually with minimum temperatures at or below freezing, requiring freeze-season exterior maintenance.

For gardens in East Rock, Westville, or Fair Haven, garden size, access, overgrowth, cleanup, materials, and preferred visit frequency help define the maintenance scope.
