2: Fall in the Garden - Maintenance Tasks and Seasonal Rituals We Return to Every Year

Welcome back to The Relished Garden Podcast. Today I’m joined by Stevie, my right hand and a horticulturalist at Relish Gardens, as we talk about why fall isn’t the end of the gardening season, and is actually the start of next year's garden. We’re sharing insights from the gardens we care for, how we approach seasonal transitions, and what you can do now to shape your garden for next spring. Think of this as your nudge to not head inside just yet. Fall is the time to assess your space while it’s still fresh and make changes that will set you up for a garden you love next year. In this episode, we cover: Why fall is "go time" in the garden and how it sets the foundation for seasons ahead What maintenance tasks we focus on in the fall, from mulching and transplanting to editing and assessing your space How we like to refresh our containers in the fall The seasonal rituals we love most this time of year, from dried flower arrangements to turning garden harvests into soup, and how these simple acts can bring people together Resources Mentioned Get our Free Fall Gardening Guide Connect with Us Relish Gardens Website Follow us on Instagram Follow us on Youtube If you loved this conversation, make sure to subscribe—we’ve got new episodes every week.  And if you know a gardening friend who’d love this, send it their way.
