Hello Robson Gardeners,

Although some heat is sticking around, it has started to wane - sweater season is approaching.

Here are some updates for the garden transition to autumn:

HARVEST

Planting and growing your own food is satisfying, however, harvesting your vegetables is one of the greatest pleasures. It may seem obvious and silly to remind gardeners to pick and eat their food, but here it is: get picking! There's nothing worse than watching vegetables and greens over ripen, wilt or rot because they've gone unpicked for weeks.

Along with this, picking your veg when it’s ready and ripe for the eating will reduce the amount of theft and opportunity for it, as well as unwanted attention from pests and rodents.

PLANNING FOR FALL & WINTER

There’s still time to start planting your fall and winter crops. West Coast seeds have a great resource which explains and provides helpful tips for what to plant for the fall and winter season. You can find the document HERE.

We’ll have an update on putting beds to rest and closing down the watering system come October!

Enjoy your hand-grown harvest,
