Did you have a solid summer season of growing? Are you feeling a little burnt out? Did you listen to last week's episode where I was telling you all about the different fall vegetables you could grow and think to yourself, "oh boy, that sounds really great, but you know, I am just really tired"?

This week's episode is all about pruning perennial plants, starting to compost, and planting garlic - the fall tasks for the weary summer grower. These are things you can do to keep your growing space working for you while you put your feet up and take a little rest this fall.

SUBMIT QUESTIONS to be answered by Farmer Erin on the podcast by emailing thegrowingspacepodcast@gmail.com

If you have specific questions about GROWING GARLIC, give me a holler. I'll be doing a whole episode on growing garlic on Halloween, mwahahaha... *in creeping vampire tone*

The Growing Space podcast is sponsored by Plant Club by The Patio Farmer. Plant Club by The Patio Farmer is a monthly subscription service I started in 2020. I actually just celebrated the third anniversary of Plant Club this month. I started it in October, 2020. Plant Club is a membership based opportunity to take your growing journey to the next level. With four different membership options, you get to decide the amount and kind of support that's right for you.

Plant Club members receive access to my online community through a platform called Circle. Having access to this platform allows members to share pictures, ask questions, celebrate, harvest, and get to know each other. All Plant Club members also have access to free seeds each month along with information on how to plant and tend to their crops with seeding instructions and downloadable resources from The Patio Farmer's Resource Library. Membership starts at just $14 / month. You can join Plant Club today by visiting my website.
