The vegetables survive the winter and are harvested in March.

You need to make sure your families in burgages with vegetables have time to tend their garden. If they are always doing construction or leading an ox somewhere, they won't have time for their veggies. I make mine farmers.

It is hard first year because your population is a limiting factor but you should be able to get a decent crop in the spring.

I make sure I have 2 large vegetable burgages out of my first five burgages. Current playthrough -- First year's harvest following spring wasn't stellar (80 or so), but enough to keep people fed and have a bit of a surplus. Second and third harvests were progressively better, so now I'm sitting fat and happy on over 500 vegetables starting fourth year.

But these all harvested in March, not December. This is why your veggie farmers can also be wheat farmers -- their busy periods do not overlap. Field crops farmers are busy in the fall and don't do ♥♥♥♥ any other time. Veggie farmers are busy in spring and summer.

Another good place for veggie farmers is in the church, which is another do-nothing job.

...also veggie farmers can be "stored" in tannery, hunting camps and apairy. all of them require quite few labour unless you have a rich wild animal deposit. windmill and malthouse can be equiped, if your harvest matches the prodiction of 3 month worth of labour. dyers are fine cause they start their work delayed after the berrys start growing.

It depends when you built it. The families will begin sowing veg as soon as they are able the the growth cycle then determines when its ready. They usually begin harvesting the following spring after planting in spring.

What kind of veggies grow thru the winter for a spring harvest? Im no farmer but my little back yard garden gets harvested thru teh summer and fall then it all dies when the temps turn cold. It doesnt continue growing thru winter. Sounds broken to me!

I went ahead and put that question into a google search bar for you, since you were unable to do so. I also hit enter right afterwards, which is a crucial part that generates search results such as these:

Winter Vegetables for Spring Harvest
Based on the provided search results, here are some vegetables that can survive through winter and be harvested in the spring:

Brussels Sprouts: Can survive the full year when planted in late spring for a winter harvest. Harvested in late winter to early spring.

Broccoli: Can survive the winter when planted in late summer/early autumn. Harvested in late winter to early spring.

Asparagus: While typically thought of as a spring crop, some varieties can be planted in the fall and harvested in the spring. Specifically, the fall-planted asparagus will produce a smaller crop in the spring, followed by a larger crop in the summer.

Kale: Hardy enough to survive the winter months, kale can be harvested throughout the season, including in the spring.

Please note that these vegetables may require protection from extreme cold and harsh weather conditions to ensure their survival. Additionally, the specific planting and harvesting times may vary depending on your location and climate zone.

Add to that carrots, beets, turnips, radishes, parsnips, onions and leeks.

So what are you growing, Mr. Greenjeans? Sounds like your typical assortment of New World veggies -- corn, tomatoes, peppers, and squash.

Most of the vegetables seem to peak in late summer, fall. But there are early vegetables. It can be confusing. I wonder if the garden owners really don't harvest in fall, too. I have yet to watch this in the game.

They don't do ♥♥♥♥ in the fall, which is why they make good farmers.

This is just another ridiculous unreal thing in this game. In this climate we have in the game the veggies never get harvested in the spring, all the veggies grown putside get harvested in the late summer, early autumn. I don´t understand why the dev made this nonsense of harvesting them in the spring. Also the harvesting of the farming products is a nonsense, you have only september to harvest everything when it´s known that in real world the harvesting lasts from august until november.

In the climate existing in the game there is no veggies that you plant in autumn and harvest in spring. All these you found on google grow in greenhouses with a 20-30 degrees temperature protected from freezing and snow during the winter. The harvesting in manor lords is a nonsense and it´s far from the real world

Veggies are harvested every 210 days from planting.
