Some ? for gardeners

When should I expect the first frost? I have a ton of green tomatoes and hope they have time to turn red! My pepper plant didn't produce many peppers early in the summer and started budding again... am I wasting my time hoping that I actually get something to grow? Once the first first hits, how do I put the garden to bed? Should I do anything to the soil to prep it for next spring?

Thanks!!!

Re: Some ? for gardeners

First frost is around mid October I think. There's time for your peppers and tomatoes, just keep an eye on the weather and if there's threat of first harvest everything and put any green tomatoes on the windowsill to ripen. I don't do anything to the soil to prep for spring.
