Keep Happy, Keep Hydrated during Fall Gardening

Even though the weather may be cooler during the fall, it’s still important to keep hydrated during your fall garden work! Physical exertion can still lead to increased body temperature and sweating. Staying hydrated helps regulate your body temperature, preventing overheating and potential heat-related illnesses.

Cooler weather can lead to dry skin, and gardening tasks can expose you to dirt and plant materials that may irritate your skin. Drinking enough water helps keep your skin hydrated and can prevent skin problems and irritation.

Hydration is essential for overall well-being. When you’re properly hydrated, you’re more likely to enjoy your gardening tasks, feel more satisfied with your accomplishments, and experience less discomfort.
