What kinds of items are people in zone 5 and below planting now for winter harvest? I have carrots, radish, lettuce, brussel sprouts, cabbage and kale that look like they will not be ready for a couple more months. I am wondering what else it is fairly safe to plant here and still get harvested before any major freeze.
 
Spinach--it will weather many freezes. Garlic for harvest next June. Cilantro--cut it and freeze it when a killing freeze is predicted to flavor salsas all winter.
