    Well, to be honest, we have never done an autumn garden as that time of year means football season for hubby and he is glad to scale back on any and all yardwork.

    Fall is usually the best season in the garden for me. Pests and diseases aren't as much of a problem so everything just grows better. I like to grow some veggies like broccoli and greens in containers so I can move them around to keep them in the sun. It usually warms up again for a few weeks after the first heavy frost so if I protect the plants by covering them or bringing them in for a few nights I can harvest for a few more weeks until the really cold weather and short days set in.

    Congrats on your blue ribbon!

    A very nice lens! I tried to contribute on your cool weather poll but it wouldn't take my input...tried twice, in fact. For the record, I was in favor of cool weather gardening! Congratulation on your blue ribbon!

    Great lens! I had very little luck with my plants this year-hopefully things come out better next year! Nice work!

    We look forward to Turnip Greens in the fall! I love the look of seed packets. They are beautiful. I wish you would do a lens on the Pitypan Squash. How do you cook yours?

    Nicely done - I'm into condo living so I couldn't provide much input here, but you did a great job with this lens!

    Like Kathy, I want to come eat at your house this fall! Yummy!

    This is a great idea! You've inspired me to look for some plants. We should be able to swing some crops before our late October frost.

    I am coming to your house in the Fall.....I never plant things, but love fresh flowers and vegetables :)

    The southeast is a great place for an autumn garden. Nice work!
