Fall and Winter crops, Modesto, CA

Because of the very late start with our boxes we'll have more of a Fall and Winter garden this year, soooo, do any of you have suggestions for what we should begin planting later this month? July, Zone 9, and I'm not sure of the Sunset Zone. We would so appreciate your input!

Thanks so much for the list. You're right, you're way south of us but I'm guessing things should do well up here if you can grow them too! We get almost daily "Delta breezes" that bring in the moisture. I'm just so anxious to get growing!
