Fall Gardening Tips
1. Do Some Maintenance
It’s best to start a fall garden with a near clean slate. Even though you don’t need to till and really work the soil, you do want to clean up any old mulch, rake up any dead leaves, remove any weeds and plant remains, as well as tidy up walkways and pathways.

Back in the garden, raised beds often help to make the transition from summer growing into fall garden planting a relatively easy operation. The beds stay loose year round, so there’s no need to get out the tiller or perform deep cultivation in between crops. Again, just remove the weeds, garden scraps, or remains of the summer’s harvest.
