What are warm season vegetables?

Warm season vegetables cannot tolerate the frost and must be planted in the spring after all danger of frost has passed. They grow well in warm weather and produce their fruit in the midst of summer. Tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, beans, corn and squash are common warm season vegetables grown in Maine gardens.
