How Do I Prepare My Garden And Lawn For Winterization?
Preparing your garden and lawn for winter is essential to protect plants, soil, and turf during the cold months. Start by raking leaves and removing debris to prevent mold and pests. Trim dead or overgrown branches and prune shrubs to encourage healthy growth in spring. Apply a layer of mulch around plants and garden beds to retain moisture and insulate roots. Fertilize your lawn with a slow-release winter fertilizer to strengthen roots before the freeze. Proper watering in late fall ensures plants go into winter hydrated.

How Often Should I Aerate or Dethatch My Lawn?
Aerating and dethatching are essential practices for maintaining a healthy, lush lawn. Aeration, which involves creating small holes in the soil, helps improve air, water, and nutrient penetration, while dethatching removes excess organic debris that can suffocate grass. Most lawns benefit from aeration once a year, typically in the spring or fall when grass is actively growing. Dethatching is usually needed every 1–3 years, depending on the thickness of the thatch layer and lawn conditions. Regular attention to these practices ensures stronger roots and a vibrant lawn.
