Spring Organic Lawn Clean-Up Checklist
This past winter was brutal with all the snow we got in the Northeast. April has started out cold as well and when it seemed like the weather finally broke there was another week of cold and even more snow! After this weekend though, we should be in the clear.
While the blistering cold should now be behind us it's still not shorts and t-shirt weather but it is warm enough to work outside comfortably and get the lawn and garden ready for spring. The grass is already starting to perk up and buds are growing on the perennials. The weeds, well, as always like they like to get a head start.
Here's a list of tasks to get your organic lawn and garden ready for the season.
