If you're listening as this episode goes live, we're right in the middle of August—a month that's often overlooked in the gardening calendar. Many people think the busiest part of the season is behind us. The borders are full, vegetables are cropping, herbs are thriving and perhaps, for the first time all year, you're actually getting to sit outside and enjoy the garden.
But August is actually one of the most important months of the year.
The work you do now doesn't just affect how your garden performs over the next few weeks—it has a huge influence on autumn, winter and even next spring.
Today's episode is all about those essential gardening jobs for August. We'll cover ornamental gardens, vegetable patches, herb gardens, containers, lawns, wildlife gardening and greenhouse jobs. Along the way I'll share plenty of practical tips and explain why these jobs matter rather than simply giving you a checklist.
So grab yourself a cup of tea—or perhaps something cold if it's another warm day—and let's get started.
