autumn

The best of the summer harvest may be over, but the best of fall is yet to come.

As the seasons shift, you may notice yourself being affected by it in many different ways. Perhaps you'll develop seasonal allergies, feel more sluggish, or have sinus problems. Whatever the case, it's important we take the time to prepare our bodies for the shift to fall to ensure a healthy transition. Here's how to do exactly that. 

It's that time of year. That’s right, I’m talking about the avalanche of everything pumpkin spice.  Lattes, baked goods, protein shakes, hand soaps, room sprays and, yup, even toilet paper. Love it or hate it, pumpkin spice is here for the next couple months. 

If you’re in the northern hemisphere, chances are it’s starting to feel a lot like fall: cooler, crisp, a little blustery; if you’re eating intuitively you’re probably beginning to crave more warm, comforting foods. Sweet, hearty root vegetables fit the bill perfectly this time of year.

Fall always comes faster than expected. In the garden, however, produce is at its peak with fresh berries, sweet corn, crunchy cucumbers, and juicy stone fruit sun ripe and ready to eat. 

As the weather cools down it's a great time to start thinking ahead for the darker days to come. That should also reflect in your garden! Here are 5 vegetables to start growing in early fall so you have a bountiful harvest throughout the rest of the season! 

Early fall is a special time to set yourself up for the holiday season. Eat with intention now and fall will gracefully blossom into a manageable, even magical, winter. Seasonal fall/winter food is warming, comforting, and grounding.

Fall comes quickly, and within a few weeks cooler temperatures and less sunshine will be status quo. The best way to kickstart a cozy autumn is in the garden, and planting a variety of colorful fall annuals and perennials is key. This article includes a round-up of ten fall-inspired plants, several of which are also edible.

As winter nears, our feathered friends can have trouble finding as much food as they do in summer.  Fall is the perfect time to make sure your garden is an inviting space for birds throughout the colder months.

With the fall equinox just around the corner you might be starting to think about parties and pumpkin pie, but instead of jumping into the holiday season, why not ease into it?
