Fall Checklist:
Order and plant spring bulbs
Add cool season crops like spinach and kale
Use season extenders like row covers
Cleanup all leftover vegetation in the vegetable garden
Amend your soil with organic matter, chopped up leaves make a great amendment.
Start cutting back spent perennials and remove annuals past- their prime. Remember its too late to prune spring blooming shrubs- wait until after they bloom.
Save seeds
