Diamondville, Wyoming, sits in USDA hardiness zone 4b — a band that supports both cool-season staples and warm-season crops chosen to fit the local frost window.
Expect zucchini, cranberry, cilantro, and okra to be strong candidates here; the deciding factors on any one parcel stay local — soil, sun, and drainage.
Even in Diamondville, no two yards are alike.
A low spot, a south-facing slope, or a stand of trees moves the frost date and sun across a single Diamondville lot. Enter your address and we'll score 1,086 plants against your land's actual soil, sun, and frost.

What this means for growing in Diamondville
Each reading below is measured for Diamondville itself — here is what it means for a garden here, and the move an experienced grower makes about it.
Season length
MeasuredDiamondville runs about 102 days between hard freezes — a short growing season.
Long-maturing crops like melons, sweet potatoes, and winter squash can run out of runway before the first hard freeze, ripening late or not at all.
Lead with fast-maturing varieties, and stretch the season on both ends with cold frames, low tunnels, or a greenhouse.

Winter hardiness
MeasuredDiamondville sits in USDA hardiness zone 4b.
The zone sets which perennials, shrubs, and fruit trees live through an average winter here — a plant rated for a colder zone is a safe bet, one rated warmer needs winter protection or gets treated as an annual.
Match perennials and fruit to the zone before you buy, so nothing you plant is a gamble against the cold.

The kind of country Diamondville is in
Diamondville sits in the Wyoming Basin — EPA Level III, inside the wider North American Deserts. That is read at Diamondville's own centroid rather than borrowed from Lincoln County.

Is it too late to plant in Diamondville?
Too late for some crops, right on time for others — a growing season is a sequence, not a deadline. Cool-season crops can go in from around May 5; tender transplants wait until two to three weeks after the last 28°F hard freeze, which lands near Jun 2 (NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals); and from midsummer, planting counts back from the first fall freeze around Sep 12 — long-season crops need about 90 days of runway, quick greens only 30. In a season this compact, fast finishers and cold-hardy greens do the late work, and garlic tucked in before the freeze repays you next summer.

A note from Gnorman
What an experienced grower watches for around here
In and around Diamondville, Nitrate runs higher than the national average — 28 sites within ~10 miles of Diamondville. It's not cause for alarm — it's worth knowing, and there's a sensible way to grow around it.
Nitrate: Nitrate contamination primarily comes from agricultural fertilizer runoff and failing septic systems.
Test well water for nitrate if you rely on a private well for irrigation (EPA standard: 10 mg/L).

Your land is one point inside Diamondville
Everything above resolves to Diamondville as a whole — one PHZM band and one 28°F frost record, read across 678 acres. Your parcel is one point inside that footprint. Slope, tree cover, a low spot that pools cold air, and what is in the soil are all resolved at the address, and none of them are visible at town scale. That is the honest boundary of this page, and the reason the next step is a reading of your own ground rather than a better local average.

How we know this about Diamondville
The datasets: hardiness from the USDA ARS Plant Hardiness Zone Map 2023, read at this town’s own centroid; hard-freeze dates from NOAA 1991–2020 28°F normals at Diamondville’s own record; boundaries and acreage from US Census TIGER/Line 2025; the contamination records from the federal sources named in their beats above. Soil is not read at town grain anywhere on this page — there is no town-resolution survey in our data, which is why you will find no soil grid here rather than a statewide one wearing a local label. The resolution ledger below names every figure this page inherited.
Common questions about Diamondville
When does frost risk typically end in Diamondville?
The last hard freeze (28°F) in Diamondville typically lands around Jun 2, per NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals — earlier than the light-frost dates most charts quote. That marks the hard freeze, not the last light frost — lighter frosts keep biting past it, which is why tender transplants here wait until about Jun 23.
When is the first frost in Diamondville?
The first hard freeze (28°F) in Diamondville typically arrives around Sep 12, per NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals — the point tender summer crops finish. Lighter frosts run ahead of it, near Aug 29, so the watching starts about Aug 13 — about 102 days after the spring freeze cleared.
How long is the growing season in Diamondville?
Measured between 28°F hard freezes, Diamondville sees about 102 frost-free days — roughly Jun 2 through Sep 12, per NOAA 1991–2020 climate normals. Tender crops work a shorter one: nearer Jun 23 to Aug 29, about 67 days.
Is the soil safe to grow vegetables in Diamondville?
The federal record around Diamondville shows 84 documented sites, mostly Underground Storage Tanks entries (33), the nearest Brownfields record under a tenth of a mile out — a typical footprint for a growing area, and proximity to a documented site is information, not a diagnosis of any one yard. It's worth seeing which recorded sites sit closest to where you grow, and testing the soil before new food beds near any of them.
How do gardeners stretch the season in Diamondville?
With about 102 frost-free days between hard freezes, Diamondville rewards the classic extension moves: floating row cover buys roughly two to four extra weeks at each shoulder — on this season that is a working window nearer 130 to 158 days — and cold frames or low tunnels buy more. Starting transplants indoors ahead of the Jun 2 hard-freeze normal stretches the season without touching the calendar.
