Gardening tips heading into the fall season
Although it may not feel like fall here along the Coast, Thursday marks the first day of fall which is the second gardening season.
Fall is a great time to start planting vegetables such as cauliflower, kale, collards, broccoli, Swiss chard, and cabbage.
Things like broccoli and Swiss chard do great in the fall and winter months because they can handle a light frost.
The great thing about living on the Coast is there is a long growing season so things like tomatoes, peppers, and squash grow well in the spring and fall.

Sister of Mississippi man who died after police pulled him from car rejects lawsuit settlement
SUMMARY: A woman rejected a settlement from Jackson, Mississippi after officials disclosed the amount they would pay her for her brother's death at the hands of three police officers. George Robinson died in 2019 after being pulled from a car by the officers. The city settled for $17,786, but the woman's attorney claimed the city violated a confidentiality agreement and will continue to sue. The lawsuit alleged that the officers brutally beat Robinson, who had not committed any crime. One officer was convicted of negligence manslaughter, but his conviction was later overturned. Additionally, the woman's son was killed by an off-duty police officer, leading to a separate investigation.
