Today we revisited a subject we discussed last year. Fall gardening is just as important as spring gardening. It is easy to forget all the cold weather crops you can put in and harvest through the late fall months. We discussed that as well as how we get our gardens ready for winter. We have different approaches to this that work well for our areas. Give this episode a listen to see what might work for you.
If you haven't listened to our episode on fall gardening, you can listen to that HERE. Please be kind. We were still figuring out our editing skills way back then.
Please consider sharing our show with a mama who could use encouragement. We try to keep our shows light and family friendly. It can be lonely being a mama. We mean for our podcast to be an encouragement.
