Where did the week go? 

It’s been cool and rainy the past few days, and I love it! The oranges and reds popping up on the hillside tell me fall is here early this year. So, I have been busy in the garden. It’s time to start thinking about saving seeds. I know many gardeners like the idea of saving seeds, but are often intimidated by the process. 

Let’s fix that today! 

Saving seeds is much easier than you would think, especially when you know the easy ones. Yes, some seeds need a little extra know-how so that you can avoid cross-pollination. But there are six vegetables you’ve probably got growing in your vegetable garden right now whose seeds you can save this month without any special fuss.

And if you’re looking for an incredibly easy way to get more perennials in your garden, Mickey would like to teach you about layering. This is, by far, one of the easiest methods you can use to “shop” for more plants in your garden.
