A good way to prepare your garden for a cold winter is to start preparing now. Make sure that all plants are properly mulched and protected from the elements, such as snow or ice. Water regularly but avoid overwatering. Ensure that any remaining vegetables in the soil are harvested before frost sets in. If you plan on leaving your garden uncovered, make sure it's well-drained and add an extra layer of protection with straw or leaves.
