The air is getting cooler, leaves are crunching underfoot, and the colors are changing – Fall is definitely here. Gardening isn’t over yet, as there’s still plenty of opportunity to grow and manage plants. This is all thanks to the lingering warmth in the soil and the extended window provided by fluctuating temperatures.
During the Autumn season, it is essential for gardeners to take advantage of this crucial time to rest and carry out necessary clean-up before winter arrives. This includes tasks such as pruning, trimming, weeding, and separating plants. Equally important are smaller tasks like dead-heading.
The Spring and Summer season is upon us and the gardening season is starting to rev up. That said, my husband and I are just getting started with our 2022 gardening endeavors which are looking a little different this year. With the last two years being drastically different in the amount of time we could commit as well as weather changes we know one thing that won’t change which is our dependence on DRAMM.
Over the last week as Summer is coming to an end, I’ve been harvesting many bright red tomatoes from the garden.
Since we didn’t have a stellar pepper harvest this year, making Salsa was off the table. Instead, I decided to stock our freezer with garden-fresh Tomato Sauce! We use tomato sauce all the time for things like soups, stews, and chili.
