Spring is near! That means it’s time to start thinking about your garden. Late winter is a good time to start prepping for both flowers and veggies, as well as tidying up after this wet winter. Here are some tips to get things rolling:
- clean up garden beds by removing dead foliage + weeds
- trim dead branches leaves from trees + shrubs
- turn over garden beds and add compost
- start Allium crops if you haven’t already (e.g. garlic, leeks) and add bulbs for summer blooms
- plan your vegetable garden and purchase seeds
- general maintenance including sharpening and oiling gardening tools, cleaning lawn furniture, repairing window boxes and raised beds
For my Greenlakers here are a few of our local garden stores:

Greenwood Hardware | 7201 Greenwood Ave N

Happy prepping!
