Episode Details

🍁🌱 There’s something special about an autumn Saturday on the allotment — the calm, the colour, and the chance to get those essential weekend jobs done before winter arrives. In this episode, we explore all the tasks, tips, and seasonal advice you need to make the most of your autumn weekends on the plot. We’ll cover:
• Clearing away the final summer crops
• Preparing beds for winter with compost & mulch
• Last-chance planting for hardy winter veg
• Polytunnel & greenhouse checks
• Fruit bush pruning and general tidy-up
• Simple ways to support wildlife this season
• Planning ahead for early 2025 projects We’ll also chat about the cosy, slower pace of autumn — warm drinks, crisp mornings, colourful leaves — and why this time of year is perfect for resetting and reconnecting with your plot. What do YOU get up to on your autumn Saturdays?
