Have you noted how sunny the areas are? That will make a big difference in what you can plant.

There is a book out there called something like PNW Vegetable Gardening. It gives activities for your garden, month by month. It's pretty nice.

You can grow things now if you want that over winter. Purple sprouting broccoli is a good one. Garlic does well as well as some onions which will be ready in spring. Kale and Arugula can do fine as well, but I'm nut sure if you can start them right now. Otherwise, make sure your soil is amended and plant cover crops like has been suggested already. You can get a bag of it at Swansons and it contains a nice mix of them.

Edit: This is the book I was thinking of.

I just bought this book specifically for our area. It has a breakdown of what to plant and do in your garden month by month.

I recommend giving this book a look. It is broken down into sections for each month and lists what you could direct sow, start indoors, or transplant. It has a wealth of information and is local to the Pacific Northwest.

I would recommend you only plant one summer squash. Two if you really want to push it. I could have built a house out of all of the summer squash I got from two plants last year. It definitely makes you feel like a real gardener but soon you'll find your 4 year old buried in a stack of summer squash.

If you ever want a bigger garden plot and don't mind driving out to Redmond I just want to let you know about the community garden at Marymoor, where I garden. http://marymoorgarden.org/ Their standard plots are 400 square feet so you'll get quite a bit more space than you have now.

This might be a cool book for her. I have a few books like this, it's handy to have a good reference like this to consult.
