The first frost of the year at Howell Farm usually occurs in mid-October -- and this year it appears to be on schedule. The forecast for Friday night calls for a low temperature of 31. A hard frost will put an end to some of the vegetables in the kitchen garden, including the green beans.
Last year's first frost didn't occur until October 28. This was a little later than the norm, but was most memorable because the next day, October 29, brought the biggest October snowstorm in New Jersey history.
