I will start the rest of the tomatoes in April for planting out directly in the garden in early to mid-June (depending on the weather). The last two years, we've gotten snow in early June.

For pole beans, I direct sow them in late May.

I start potatoes from seed tonight. I got them late, so we'll see what happens. I suspect that I am too late with these.

Squash and melons will be started in pots in May to plant out in the garden in June.

I already have lettuce, chard, spinach, broccoli Raab and kohlrabi going in a cold frame.

We're having such nice weather (65 degrees today!) I think I'll start some dwarf tomatoes tonight too and put them in pots on the porch so that they can come inside at night. Night temperatures are still in the 20s for a while. Sigh.
Snow in June? Wow! And I thought it was weird to have snow in march here.... have you ever used wall o waters before?
