Gardening Starts in the Fall

Are you dreaming of harvesting your own juicy, homegrown tomatoes next summer? Tired of paying outrageous prices at the grocery store? Good news: fall is the best time to prepare your garden for success.

If I’ve learned one thing about organic gardening, it’s this: healthy soil = healthy plants. And there’s no better season than autumn to build a strong foundation for next year’s harvest.

Start Composting in the Fall

Fall leaves are gardening gold!

Instead of sending them to the landfill, add them to your compost pile. Mix dry leaves with kitchen scraps—like eggshells, coffee grounds, and banana peels—and you’ll have rich compost by spring.

Healthy compost improves soil structure, boosts nutrients, and helps your garden retain moisture during summer heat. If you don’t already have a compost bin, fall is the perfect time to start one.

Build New Garden Beds Before Spring

Looking to expand your garden? Fall is the ideal season to create new growing spaces. You’ll avoid the spring rush and be ready to plant as soon as the soil warms.

Whether you’re dreaming of a kitchen garden, raspberry patch, pollinator border, or raised beds for leafy greens, gather your materials now. Supplies sell out quickly in spring—and often cost more.

Tip: Raised beds need a lot of soil. Start sourcing or making it now so you’re not scrambling in April.

Do a Fall Seed Inventory

Seeds are often sold out by spring, so use fall to get organized. Go through your stash, toss old or expired packets, and make a list of what you’ll need for next year.

Ordering early ensures you get the varieties you want—and avoids that dreaded “out of stock” label when planting season arrives.

How to Save Tomato Seeds

One of the easiest fall gardening tasks is seed saving. Just one ripe tomato can provide enough seeds to grow a whole bed next year.

Here’s how to do it:

  1. Scoop out seeds from a ripe tomato.
  2. Rinse and ferment them for a few days (to remove the gel coating).
  3. Dry thoroughly and store in a labeled envelope.

Plant Cool-Weather Crops in Fall

Want an early spring harvest? Try sowing spinach or lettuce in fall. These hardy greens can overwinter and sprout as soon as the snow melts—giving you fresh greens weeks before summer crops take off.

Most experts recommend planting by mid-August, but don’t be afraid to experiment. Weather patterns are shifting—this year we had 100° days in September with no frost by the end of the month! I’ll be sprinkling spinach seeds anyway to see what happens. Gardening rewards curiosity.

You can also save seeds from lettuce—just let a few plants bolt and go to seed. You’ll collect plenty for next year while feeding birds and beneficial insects in the fall. Here’s a great blog post from Megan Cain at the Creative Vegetable Gardener I think you’ll love!

Revisit Your Garden Goals

Fall isn’t just about cleanup—it’s a season for dreaming and planning. Take time to reflect on your garden goals and put one into action before winter sets in. Compost, build beds, save seeds, or plant fall crops—whatever you choose, your future self will thank you.
