Fall and winter are a great time to gather supplies, prep and plan for your spring garden. Whether an old pro or newbie, a HUGE perk is that growing food is the same process over and over! There will be failures and successes every year but being well prepared sets you up for success.... and saves you money in the long run.

1. What you need to begin observing in your garden space(s)
2. How to save a lot of time and money by picking up garden tools and necessities now
3. Begin planning out what you want to grow, what will go where and how this impacts the seeds and plants you'll purchase
4. Why thinking about soil, amendments and protection measures matters (yes, you need to protect soil)
