October might feel like the garden is winding down, but there’s still plenty to be getting on with! In this episode of the **Growing Up Podcast**, Kate and Andy run through the essential gardening jobs for October, from planting spring bulbs and garlic to harvesting the last crops, protecting tender plants and preparing your soil for winter.
We also look at autumn lawn care, composting, making leaf mould, looking after wildlife and why you might want to resist the temptation to make the garden *too* tidy.
Whether you’re growing vegetables, herbs or simply looking after your garden, this episode will help you make the most of October and get everything ready for the colder months — and for an even better garden next year.
