When can you plant in Hanna, WY?

Zone 5a

Typically, the last spring freeze lands around 05/20, roughly 265 days out. The first fall frost typically arrives around 09/28, about 128 frost-free days later.

Hanna sits in USDA Zone 5a (-20 to -15°F average annual minimum). The dates above are NOAA's 1991-2020 normal at the nearest reporting station, a 30-year average, not a forecast.

What to do before the first frost

About 4 weeks of growing season left in Hanna before the first fall frost — a cold frame or row cover can stretch harvest weeks past that date.

Why 05/20 isn't a guarantee

05/20 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 05/03 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 06/13 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
