FALL IS IN THE AIR 

September 2022

HAPPY AUTUMN 
Fall is in the air ~ it’s unmistakable after 2 months of sweltering summer heat. Dewy mornings, leaves slowing changing colour and the need for layers. Hello Hoodies ~ We love this time of year!

Thursday, September 22nd marks the first day of Fall & Autumnal Equinox. The word “equinox” comes from Latin and means “equal night,” referring to the roughly 12-hour day and 12-hour night that occurs only on the two equinox days of the year.

This is a potent time to reflect on your personal growth and set new intentions.

On the equinox we honour the balance and interaction of the light and the dark, and we honour the harvest. Whether that be a ‘real’ harvest of the seeds planted in your garden or the harvest of efforts and intentions for your life path that you set earlier in the year.

FALL GARDENING TIPS

Time to plant garlic!! We like to plant our garlic in the third moon phase of October. This year, that falls between October 10th & 17th.

To plant garlic, break apart the cloves trying to keep the skin on. Sprinkle bone meal in holes  4-8 inches apart and 2 inches deep.. Plant each clove with the wide part facing down at the tip pointing up.

Fall is also the season to plant your cover crops such as fall rye to nourish your soil.
