Prescott Garden Keeping - September Edition

🌿 September in the Prescott Garden
Your Monthly Garden Keeping Summary from The Whiskey Porch

September in Prescott is a moment of graceful transition.  It's late summer here.  The garden is often at its peak, with fruits ripening, flowers still blooming, and cooler evenings offering relief from the heat. It’s a month to harvest generously, plant fall crops, and enjoy the momentum of a thriving high-desert garden.
​

🌼 Seasonal Highlights

• Harvest and reseed: Keep enjoying your late-summer crops and begin planting cool-season vegetables like lettuce, carrots, peas, and kale.
  
• Monsoon transitions: As rain slows down, check irrigation systems and adjust watering as needed to avoid over- or under-watering during warm fall days.
  

📝 Full Checklist is on our Substack.  The Prescott Garden Keeping Journal – September  Edition includes:

• 🌱 Plants & Planting
• 💦 Water

​A Quick note about my shift to substack

I’m moving all of my seasonal content — including these monthly garden checklists and my more personal reflections on design, simple living, and the art of living well — over to Substack.

It’s a quieter, more intentional space where I can share practical tips, stories, and behind-the-scenes moments — all without ads or social media noise.  And, we can foster a more personal conversation there which feels more like sharing from the porch than broadcasting into the algorithm void.

It’s still completely FREE to follow along, and I’d love to welcome you there.

More Inspo

If you got this far, then thank you for reading along.  I truly enjoy sharing information and ideas to help my community.  

I hope you found something interesting and possibly useful.  Sometimes it's just a little nudge or reminder to not forget something you already do.  And sometimes it might be something brand new for you to consider.

If you have any suggestions or ideas for things to tweak or add to the list, I'd love to hear from you.

Now, it's time for a nice cool glass of Pinot Grigio on the front porch.  

Until next time, enjoy September's beauty!
