I got a question recently from someone planning to start a high elevation garden, wondering about some tips I might offer. That, along with a presentation I did for a local group last year, led me to believe a few “Top Tips” might be nice. Most of this information is scattered around the website, but here’s a spot with several tips all consolidated.
Hopefully it’s helpful!

This is incredibly helpful. Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience and research with the world. We’re moving to the area in a few weeks and I am excitedly trying to learn all I can about gardening in this area. I’ve bookmarked your site and will be a frequent visitor.
Thanks for your comment! It’s always good to know someone finds this information useful. I’ve done a few updates, take another look!
We have similar interests. At 4 Mile community Church, we have homesteading classes that have included high altitude gardening, ham radio operations, foraging, herbalism, cheese making, etc etc etc.
You probably know some of the folks who go to church at 4 Mile community Church.
I would like to meet you folks so we can share interests
