Fall Bounty: Planting for a Harvest Festival

As summer fades and the air turns crisp, it’s time to transition your garden for a fall harvest. In this seasonal gardening guide, we’ll help you plan what to plant and when, ensuring a bountiful autumn.

Early Fall: September to October

Start by planting fall-flowering perennials like asters and chrysanthemums to keep your garden colorful. It’s also prime time to sow cool-season vegetables such as carrots, beets, and radishes.

Mid-Fall: October to November

Continue the fall planting spree by adding ornamental grasses and late-blooming flowers. Don’t forget to plant garlic for a harvest next summer and winter-hardy vegetables like Brussels sprouts and kale.

Late Fall: November to December

Wrap up your gardening year by planting spring-blooming bulbs like tulips and daffodils. Mulch around your plants to protect them from winter’s chill, and dream of the beautiful garden that awaits you next spring.
