Frost dates for Park, KS, ZIP 67751

Zone 6a

Around 04/24 is the usual last spring frost, about 239 days away. The first fall frost typically arrives around 10/18, about 176 frost-free days later.

Zone 6a (-10 to -5°F average annual minimum) comes from the USDA Plant Hardiness Zone Map; the frost dates above are the 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting NOAA station for Park, not a forecast for this year.

What to do before the first frost

Zone 6a around Park has about 7 weeks left before the first fall frost — that's the usual window to get a cold frame up if you want to keep harvesting past it.

Why 04/24 isn't a guarantee

04/24 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 04/09 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 05/07 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
