This fall, it’s important to focus on not only your own health, but the health of your home
and surrounding property! While everyone is packing away the summer gear, fall is going
about its business, preparing you for the colder weather. But what comes with the season
is much more than pumpkin spice everything and apple cider donuts -- and it requires your
attention! Below are a few simple ways you can do a bit of cleanup for the season and keep
your home in tip-top shape!
Turn Over Soil
Now that plants won’t be blooming as much, it’s time to till the dirt and apply new soil if
necessary. Pluck out old plants and add another layer of soil to help nurture before next
spring!
Trim Trees
It’s important to trim hanging branches and other parts of trees that can pose a threat
during storm season and the subsequent months. Trim these off and allow to dry for
firewood or dispose of safely!
Rake Leaves
Did you know that branches, leaves and debris can suffocate your grass? If you didn’t,
make sure to get out there and corral them into a bag before they damage the lawn! This
will help you stay ahead of your grass growing next season.
Mow The Lawn
Cutting your grass on a very low setting helps your soil dry out quicker in the spring, which
can translate into a greener, more lush lawn when it’s finally time to start blooming again!
Cover Sensitive Plants
For sensitive plants such as roses, it’s important to protect them from the effects of winter by
adding mulch to the base and covering them with blankets or plastic to preserve the look!
You’ll be happy you did when spring rolls around.
