Country Living's Spring Garden Tasks

Country Living highlights the importance of preparing your garden soil before the spring bloom to ensure healthy plant growth. This includes removing debris, amending the soil with compost or other organic matter, and testing the pH level. Mulching helps retain soil moisture, suppress weeds, and regulate soil temperature. Organic mulches, such as wood chips or straw, also decompose over time, adding nutrients to the soil. These early tasks set the stage for a successful and vibrant garden throughout the growing season. Taking the time to tend to the soil and apply mulch can save time and effort later on.
