Super El Niño is coming—so what does that actually mean for your garden? No panic. No buying 47 packets of seeds. 😂 Just a few practical things you can do now to make your garden more prepared for whatever winter decides to throw at you.

I bought a hori hori knife because apparently real gardeners have one. I wasn't convinced. It looked like a cross between a knife, a tiny shovel, and something that might come in handy if I ever found myself lost in the wilderness.

Fall is the perfect time to do a little garden reset — clean up what needs cleaning, organize the things you've been ignoring all summer, make notes about what worked (and what absolutely did NOT), and do a little planning for spring.
