What I am Harvesting & Planting NOW 🌱 in my 1/5 acre Edible Garden 🍂 AUTUMN

Autumn is one of the busiest....and most rewarding times in my suburban edible garden! In today’s vlog, we are doing a bit of everything: harvesting heavy baskets of fruit, "lazy" seed sowing, and tackling some big garden maintenance tasks to get ready for winter. If you’ve ever felt like your suburban block is too small to be productive, I hope this video shows you how high-density planting and working with the seasons can provide food all year round. In this video: 🌿 Lazy Seed Sowing: How I scatter hundreds of seeds (onions, poppies, lettuce) with almost zero effort for "free" plants. 🌿 Harvesting Abundance: We’re picking pomegranates, Hawaiian guavas, feijoas, and a surprise giant sweet potato! 🌿 Essential Maintenance: Why I prune apricots in autumn instead of winter and the "sauna" experience of removing summer shade cloths. 🌿 Adding Diversity: Planting new Salvia varieties and flowers to attract beneficial insects and birds to keep the food forest healthy.
