Gather the crew - it's time for a season review!

This week on the Season Review Challenge, we're talking about doing a team season review. That means gathering everyone who worked alongside you this year, and looking back together on how the season went - not just from your perspective, but from theirs.

Taking time for a team review might feel risky during fall harvests and cleanup, but it's one of the best investments you can make for your systems, your sanity, and your staff retention. When people feel heard and see their feedback shape next season's plan, they're a lot more likely to stick around and keep growing with you.

This minisode is part 2 of the 2025 Season Review Challenge, where I want to make sure you take the time to learn from this season so you can plan an even better next season.

In this episode, we'll get into:

• How to structure a team season review

• Questions to ask that draw out useful insights

• How to use surveys to gather input efficiently

• Why sharing everyone's responses matters

• How this feedback can directly improve your seed systems

So, before you dive into winter planning, take an hour to harvest your team's experience. The seeds of next season's improvements are already there. You just have to ask for them.

Enjoy the episode!
