Today we’re talking about one of my least favorite but probably most important fall garden rituals: the great garden clean-up. This is the part of the year where we get to close one chapter of the garden season and start quietly writing the next chapter.
Now that most of the chaos of the garden is done, it's time to be putting things in order, protecting the soil, and setting yourself up for success next spring.
So, today on Just Grow Something we’re talking about:
• What to remove and what to leave in your garden beds
• How to handle diseased or pest-infested plant material
• Best practices for soil testing, amending, and protecting your beds over winter
• And a few tips for the gardeners who have really just had it for now and don’t want to completely clear everything out in this moment. Because I feel you.
Let’s dig in!
