The summer's “hot and dry” sent many gardeners indoors seeking shelter in air conditioned environments. Some predictors are saying next year could be even more extreme. The “off” season gives plenty of time to get prepared. For example my rooftop water collection system—now with a capacity well over a 1000 gallons – was enough for my small garden to survive with no additional water sources needed. As a result I'm still harvesting tomatoes, cucumbers, squash, beans and peppers. But change is in the air.

As October winds down in Van Buren County, the Ozark air is carrying an unmistakable crispness as fall colors approach their peak. Daytime highs are still reaching the 70s, but overnight lows are dipping into the 40s and will soon flirt with frost. Our first frost typically arrives between late October to early November, so now is the time to act. Harvest your tender crops like tomatoes, peppers, basil and other warm-weather crops before a cold snap nips them. Green tomatoes can ripen indoors on a countertop, so don't be shy about picking them.
