It’s definitely Autumn in the air and even with being a dismal summer as far as gardening goes I’m still picking tomatoes.
It’s time to do all those lovely clean up chores in the garden. So here are some lovely Autumn Gardening Chores for you….
Autumn Gardening Chores (would you like this in a cute printable? Let me know).
1. Clean up excess garden debris. Dead plants. I have plenty of those. And stalks. Turn your soil over.
2. Clean and oil your garden tools.
3. Drain and store garden hoses. Seriously consider drip irrigation for next year.
4. It’s a good time to do some lasagna gardening. One of my best friends told me about this last year and we’re trying it with a patch of my mother’s yard.
5. Make notes on things you’re going to do better next year. (we’ll do better at staking the tomatoes and organic bug control).
Happy Gardening
