Fall - A Great Season For Gardening

August gets a B+ this year, with our hot streak taking a rain break around the middle of the month and evenings dipping into the seventies. This doesn’t mean that hot weather is gone for good, but it appears that things are easing and we can get back to enjoying our yards and start our fall gardening projects.

I get as excited about this time of year as I do spring, and it always seems to fly by just as quickly.

Get those fall veggies planted, prune out the sun burnt stuff, and get the fall pre-emergent and fertilizers put out. Plant trees, shrubs, groundcovers, and new lawns, but—we have to control ourselves and hold off on pansies until no earlier than October.

You should have plenty to do as the days get shorter, and soon enough you’ll be able to enjoy a cool evening around your outdoor fire pit.

Wait—you don’t have one of those yet? Hmmm, maybe you better give us a call!
