In this episode of our podcast, Katie speaks with Patrick Vernuccio, aka @The Frenchie Gardener about how to prepare our gardens for winter — and more!
Patrick is a permaculture gardener who grows a range of organic fruits and veg on his 18 square metre balcony (= just under 200 sq. ft.) in Berlin. Patrick takes us through the steps he takes to prepare for winter — from an urban gardener perspective, but his tips will help any gardener!
From considering microclimates to whether to overwinter basil to how to prune fruit trees, Patrick and Katie have a wide-ranging conversation about prepping gardens for winter and for good garden health.
Do you have a checklist for getting your garden ready for winter? Let us know in the comments!
Watch to the end to find out why Patrick believes gardening should be taught in schools and Katie’s thoughts on the same.

Gardenstead is an online gardening community and plant lovers channel of gardeners who love to get their hands dirty, both indoors and outdoors. Our gardeners run the gamut. They are vegetable gardeners, houseplant nurturers, small space gardening engineers, herbalists, flower enthusiasts and succulent aficionados.
Our goal has always been to connect gardeners in an inclusive gardening community, foster and share knowledge, and make gardening resources available to everyone.
As we grow, we seek to expand our conversations about gardening and to
cultivate a mindful embrace of nature and the healing and grounding properties
to be found in it.
Plants cultivate connections between people — from urban settings of balcony gardens
and small spaces to rural backyards with larger and more expansive gardens. We hope
you’ll join us as we continue to nurture these connections and create new ones.
