Is there a reason you need to pull it up? If it’s there to suppress weeds you’ll likely want it there next year too unless you are planting something different that needs to use the space differently.

We till the garden in the Spring, too busy to do it in the fall. There is too much garden to till it manually.

To the extent you want to till in organics early enough for them to be well incorporated into the soil, I'd pull up and till in the fall. But if you're too busy to do that, why not just leave the ground cover until spring?

You could go no-till, leave the landscape fabric down and augment the planting hole with nutrients at planting time.

I might try leaving part of the garden with the fabric down. I definitely will not get to pulling it off this fall. I'll be able to determine better next spring if leaving it on and replanting without pulling it up. Thanks everyone!
