Peasants did the winter farm work in winter, which included repair and upkeep of tools, clothing, buildings, and to some extent such things as fences, and roads, where there was not a lot of ice to interfere with work.
They had wood for heat from common wood lots on the manors, and if there was no famine going on, had a certain amount of food put aside. They built their fires in the middles of their rooms, because they had no fireplaces or chimneys. The smoke rose to a hole in the roof, vents under the roof peak, or, they say, simply went out through the thatch itself, if the roof was thatched (I am not sure I believe this, but I have been wrong about such things).
They ate such storage foods as cabbage, beets, turnips, and all sorts of pickles (which were much more nutritious than most you buy today, because they had not been canned), including pickled eggs and fish. They kept chickens, and had a supply of fresh eggs, though reduced from what it would have been in summer. Cheese would keep literally for years in cool storage, such as cellars or caves, and they could get a certain amount of that.
Most slept on the floor on top of hay. During the winter time they let the livestock (like the pigs) into their house for warmth.
In September, medieval peasants primarily focused on harvesting crops, particularly grains like wheat and barley, which were ready for collection at this time. They would also gather fruits and vegetables from their gardens and prepare for the upcoming winter by preserving food. Additionally, this month marked a time for some peasants to start preparing their fields for the next planting season, ensuring they were ready for the fall sowing of winter crops. Social activities and community gatherings often occurred as well, celebrating the harvest season.
