Ray, if I recall correctly, Elliott Coleman has a cold frame and gardens 
all four seasons--in Maine.  I believe part of his success is that he 
grows plants during the coldest months that like or don't mind cold 
temperatures. 

I have zero experience with cold frames, but clearly need to learn.  
Good luck.
