Tonight, we’re talking about Fall Season Crops
Finally…
The morning air is crisp again. The days are getting shorter. And although it’s still warm, or even hot during the day, most people are winding down their gardens for the year. And why not? With Labor Day and Football just a few days from now, the summer is coming to an end. Kids are back in school. Grocery stores are already stocking up on Halloween Candy. Before ya know it, they’ll be jack-o-lanterns sitting on bails of straw on front porches and coffee houses pushing Pumpkin Spice Lattes to passer byes. And yes… I’m a big fan of Autumn. I love it. But our gardens don’t… Or do they…?
Ya see, homesteaders know that Fall may be the end of Summer growing season, but they are keenly aware that it’s just another beginning for their gardens. Cuz when one door closes, another always opens.
The start of this season is important, if you want groceries in your pantry throughout Winter. It’s all about planting cold-hardy greens, root vegetables that thrive underground, and cover crops that rebuild the soil, so next year’s harvest is even stronger. And it’s about turning challenges, like shorter days, dropping temps, and pests looking for a last meal, into opportunities for your family's resilience and abundance.
If you’ve never planted in fall, this is your moment to start. Spinach, Kale, Carrots, Radishes, Garlic, and so many more, these aren’t just crops, consider them nutritious survival insurance. And while pests may be hungry and persistent, the right strategies, like organic deterrents, companion planting, and watchful management, you’ll keep your garden thriving while others are shutting theirs down.
From nasty bugs to cover crops, we’ll discuss everything you need to know, as Preppers, to begin Fall Season Gardening.
Let’s get to it…
