Ep. 135: Autumn Garden Prep | Witch’s Garden Series

As the light shifts and the wheel turns, we slip into the golden hush of autumn 🍂—a season of release, restoration, and root work. In this week’s episode, we cozy up with cardigans, compost, and a little cinematic nostalgia as we revisit the gardens of Practical Magic. Remember that quiet moment when Sally Owens is burning back the brambles? There’s more than yardwork happening there—it’s a sacred act of clearing, of preparing the land and the spirit for the darker half of the year.

We explore how the Owens garden might feel in early fall, what chores the aunts would be up to, and how their seasonal rituals mirror the ones we can do in our own backyards. Then we shift from fiction to the practical—offering real-world witchy garden tips for Mabon and beyond. From protecting perennials to harvesting the last of the radishes, we talk about why autumn is the season for magical groundwork.

Whether you’ve got a full moon altar in your greenhouse or a single potted rosemary on your windowsill, this episode will guide you through tending your garden and your spirit as the veil begins to thin.
