The weather is fine. All you gotta' have is above freezing temperatures by mid-May. With no-till planters you don't have the problems they did in the good old days when you couldn't get corn in Indiana in the ground before it dried out in late June.

This will probably end up being a Fimbul Winter as far as fruit trees are concerned ~ but the South will make up for the shortage (except for apricot preserves).

If you get really panicked try fancy beans.
