In this video, I'll show you how to hopefully have a successful growing season through autumn, winter, and spring!

What to grow in autumn? I got you covered!

I'll be sharing my top autumn and winter tips to keep your allotment thriving through the colder months and prepare for a bountiful spring! We’ll cover everything from storing squashes to make the most of your harvest to prepping your soil and raised beds for an early head start next year.

Key Topics:

Storing Squashes: Learn how to store your squashes properly so they last throughout the winter.
Soil Preparation & Raised Beds: Discover the benefits of preparing your soil and raised beds now, so they’re ready to go as soon as the weather warms up in spring. We'll talk mulching, adding compost, and protecting your beds from harsh winter weather.
Sowing Onion Sets in Module Trays: I’ll show you how to start your onion sets in module trays before planting them outside for a strong root system. You can even sow directly outside if the weather permits—I'll discuss the pros and cons of both methods.
Benefits of Eating Root Vegetables: Find out why root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, and turnips are perfect for cold months, not just for their heartiness but also for their health benefits, like high vitamin and mineral content.
Growing Undercover vs. Outside: Are you debating whether to grow undercover in a greenhouse or polytunnel versus directly outside? I'll weigh the pros and cons, from protecting crops from frost to the potential for pests and higher costs.
Exciting Future Plans: Looking ahead, I’ll be showing you my new potting shed project! It's going to have a gorgeous glass front made from reclaimed old doors, and I'll be fitting a log stove inside for those chilly winter days. Perfect for staying cosy while planning the next season’s crops!
