LAWN CARE

Winter lawn care is easy — leave it be! Walking on soggy soil can compact it, so try to avoid mowing during our winter wet — better to let it get a little shaggy. Now’s the time to clean your mower, sharpen its blades, and watch to see if you spot any problems (moss, weeds, bare patches) that you’ll need to address in early spring. For ideal lushness, give your grass a final feeding of good organic fertilizer around Thanksgiving. Around Valentine’s Day will be your first feeding of the New Year.
