    HA! I'm in Leamington right now. It is a great place because it is considered one of the hottest places in Canada. We have many greenhouses around here.

    In Calgary, I grow veggies in pots, mainly so that when there is a frost, I can bring them inside the house to prevent freezing. Also I put them on my deck or the deer eat them!

    As far as I know it is mainly tomatoes and cucumbers, possibly peppers, and mushrooms. They do have workers in them all year round as more migrant workers are getting long-term work visas.

    On the west coast you get three growing seasons. Lettuce actually grows all year. It gets bitter, but it's good for seed saving.
