As fall sets in and winter approaches, it’s the perfect time to prepare gardens for colder months and set the stage for a flourishing spring.
Brandy Hall, founder of Shades of Green Permaculture, offers expert tips to ensure gardens thrive. Fall is optimal for replenishing soil with fresh compost, and leaves make excellent mulch to protect habitats, while dead blooms can be chopped and dropped to enhance soil. Planting perennials and trees and using techniques like sheet mulching will help your garden stay healthy through winter.
