The snow has melted and spring is upon us! Although the temperatures are still cool, and plants and trees have not begun blooming yet, now is the perfect time to begin your spring clean-up.
What does a spring clean-up entail?
Start by removing leaves, trash, and debris. This will allow your grass and plants to breathe and have a healthy transition from dormant to growing.
Add mulch. Adding a fresh layer of mulch not only enhances the look of your landscaping, it also keeps weeds away and helps the soil retain moisture.
Ensure your tools are in good working order. Sharpen any knives or blades that might be dull – including your lawnmower. While you’re at it, give your lawnmower a tune-up, changing the oil and checking the air filter and spark plugs.
Why should I spring clean my yard?
It’s a first impression. Your yard is one of the first things people see when they look at your house. Well-cared-for yards boost your home’s curb appeal and raise its market value.
It’s a mood booster. Trees and other plants around your yard create fresh, clean oxygen which is so healthy for your body. When you step outside, you don’t want to be greeted by debris and fallen branches, but rather, a healthy and flourishing yard.
It’s self-expression. Your yard says a lot about you. It’s a great way to express your personality and get creative with one-of-a-kind landscaping.
It’s a room extension. If you have a beautiful yard, you’ll want to spend more time outdoors. Your kids will have a safe and healthy place to play, and you’ll have a peaceful oasis to spend your evenings. Consider adding a water feature for extra relaxation, a fire pit for creating fun family memories, or flower beds to appreciate simple beauty.
