One of the first steps you take when you are estimating your gardening schedule is find your USDA Zone info. The most important data that the zone info tells us is average last frost and the lowest expected temperature for your area.

The first chance to plant clover in Woodland can be figured out by looking at the USDA zone info.

Clover do ok in very little cold which tells us that you can plant them just a tiny bit earlier in the year than more sensitive plants.

The earliest that you can plant clover in Woodland is February. However, you really should wait until March if you don't want to take any chances.

The last month that you can plant clover and expect a good harvest is probably September. If you wait any later than that and your clover may not have a chance to grow to maturity. If you are starting your clover indoors then you might be able to get away with starting them a few weeks earlier.

Last Frost Date

On average the last frost when the weather gets warmer is on February 15 in Woodland. In the coldest months of winter you should expect an average low temperature of 25°F.

Since the USDA zone info for Woodland is not always accurate the actual date of last frost changes from year to year. Half of the time in Woodland there is a last frost after February 15 so be sure to be ready to cover your clover if you have one of those late frosts.
