Fall: A Season of New beginnings
As summer fades and the air turns crisp, most people are wrapping up their gardening. But here’s the truth: fall isn’t the end, it’s the beginning of something beautiful.
In fact, autumn is hands-down the smartest time to grow. Whether you’re planting perennials, trees, or prepping veggie beds for next year, fall gives you the best head-start for next season.
Why Fall Planting is Unbe-leaf-ably Smart:
Let’s dig into why fall is a plantastic time to get your hands dirty:
-
Cooler air = less stress on plants
Without the summer heat, plants can focus on root growth -
Warm soil = active roots & microbes
While the air cools, the soil stays warm, and that’s prime real estate for roots and microbes to move in and get to work. -
Autumn rain = nature’s watering can
Consistent moisture helps plants establish their roots without you having to haul the hose every day. -
Fewer pests = less drama
With fewer bugs around, your plants can grow in peace. No creepy crawlies crashing the party.
Microbes Matter
Healthy soil is full of life and thanks to fall’s warm, moist conditions, this is perfect for all those beneficial microbes to break down organic matter and feed your plants from the ground up.
