I think, up until recently, if you’d asked me what my favourite season was, I’d have probably said summer, purely because it’s warmer and the days longer. But I’m appreciating autumn this year. I don’t know if that’s because the weather has been better than expected most days or because I’m getting older!
Having chickens in the garden again, has also helped. It means I’m outside more, cleaning the coop, giving them food and watching them go about their activities. And while I’m doing that I’m appreciating the seasonal changes that are happening in the garden.
I’ve realised I’ve got a new favourite autumn activity too... gathering up the fallen leaves.
Fresh air and exercise for me, the garden gets tidied and once collected I give the leaves to the chickens to sort through and explore. An activity with benefits for everyone.
