Old blankets supported by scraps of lumber driven into the patch around them.

A big sterilite container with a few jugs of really warm water and a leftover heat mat for seed starting will keep them nice and toasty, provided you can run electricity to your patch. kept my plants at about 55 despite a low of 34 this morning.

3-4 2 liter soda bottles nearly full of very warm water stuck next to plant, put a 5 gallon pail over it, and cover that with a blanket. Rig some sort of windbreak right next to it, and that will help.
