Farmersville, CA 93235 Frost Dates

When can you plant in Farmersville, CA?

Zone 9b

Around 01/23 is the usual last spring frost, about 148 days away. The first fall frost typically arrives around 12/13, about 328 frost-free days later.

Farmersville sits in USDA Zone 9b (25 to 30°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 15 weeks of growing season left in Farmersville before the first fall frost — a cold frame or row cover can stretch harvest weeks past that date.

Why 01/23 isn't a guarantee

01/23 is the middle of 30 years of NOAA records, not a promise. Plant by 02/27 and you're betting against frost in roughly 9 years out of 10. 12/29 is the safer bet, historically only a 1-in-10 chance of frost that late.
