In NE Arkansas, Dad used to plant winter wheat in November and then plow it under in the spring for cover crop.
Although it was before my time, dad says grandpa used to plant "Chinese Cabbage" and it would be hardy until after frost.
And of course, turnips were always planted, harvested and eaten.
Dad also had seed for big leaf mustard, and the leaves made the best greens cooked down we ever had. Not tart, but sweet. He would let the tops go to seed and beat the tops on the carport so seed could be swept up and saved.
