Reading the season in Biloxi
With roughly 305 frost-free days, Biloxi gardens fit long-season crops — melons, winter squash, sweet potatoes — with room left for spring and fall rounds of greens and roots. The first frost around Dec 14 is late enough that fall planting is a full second season, not an afterthought.
