Never Too Late to Plant - September 8, 2026

Hey Gardeners! 🌱

September is here, but your garden doesn’t have to be finished.

In Georgia and similar growing zones, early fall is a beautiful opportunity to transition from summer crops into cool-season gardening.

Think leafy greens, radishes, carrots, herbs and other crops that enjoy those cooler fall temperatures.

Before planting, give your soil a little attention. Remove exhausted plants, add compost or organic matter where needed, and check your soil moisture before putting new seeds or transplants into the ground.

And remember: gardening isn’t about having acres of land.

A raised bed, patio container or sunny corner can become your garden.

That’s why I keep saying:

It’s Never Too Late to Plant. 🌱

From Our Garden. To Your Kitchen Table.
