Plant a fall and winter garden
Days are shorter and temps are cooler, but that doesn't mean there's nothing to be had from the garden. Cool-season gardening does take some planning - overlapping your summer harvest with the start of your cool weather planting. There's a few extra things to keep in mind for a fall and winter garden:
- Plant in plenty of time to let plants establish before cold temps
- Soil prep is key - here's where you can use those fallen leaves to pull double duty
- Protection from weather elements will need to be ready

Preserve your harvest
After the summer harvest, it's time to get to work on food preservation. Learn how to can, dry, ferment and cure the goods you've worked so hard for. Save them up in storage or use them for gifts during the holiday season - whatever you choose, nothing beats a homegrown treat.
