It doesn't matter if it snows. It doesn't matter if it freezes, within reason. Cool-season vegetables can withstand it all. They need to cool weather to develop properly. They can adapt to ups and downs in the weather. Before you plant, prepare your beds. They'll need to be dug and raked. Consider beds that are below grade or trenches. In our dry climate, it makes sense to plant in depressed beds that catch rainwater or can be easily watered by flooding the bed. Leafy greens such as lettuce, spinach and mustard can go in now. Use starter plants from the nursery or plant by seed. Cole crops such as cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli can also be planted now. Root crops such as carrots, beets, radish and turnips are usually planted by seed. Most people plant onions from small sets or seedlings. Plant them right near the surface with just the pointed end sticking out. They can be planted about two inches apart. Pull every other one early to use as scallions, leaving the rest to mature to full size. If you don't have garden space, many vegetables can be grown successfully in pots. Snow is an insulator and actually protects plants. If the weather gets really cold, use sheets or frost covers for added protection.
