Spring cleanup is essential to prepare your yard for a healthy and vibrant growing season. Over winter, leaves, debris, and dead plant material can build up, preventing sunlight, water, and nutrients from reaching your soil.
Benefits of Spring Clean-up:
- Healthier Lawn and Plants: Removing debris helps your grass and plants grow without obstruction.
- Pest Prevention: Clearing out dead leaves and branches reduces hiding spots for pests and insects.
- Improved Curb Appeal: A tidy yard enhances your property’s appearance and value.
- Easier Maintenance: Starting the season with a clean yard makes ongoing care simpler and more effective.
Spring Yard Cleanup & Maintenance
- Debris Removal: Clear out leaves and winter debris to refresh your yard.
- Mulch & Stones: Add fresh mulch or decorative stones to garden beds and tree rings for moisture retention and weed suppression.
- Aeration: Loosen compacted soil to enhance water and nutrient absorption for healthier grass.
- Fertilization: Boost lawn growth with fertilizer. Apply pre-emergent weed control between February and March for best results.
- Pruning: Trim back spent stems and foliage from perennials for fresh, new growth.
- Shrub & Bush Shaping: Cut back and reshape shrubs for a neat, well-maintained look.
Get your outdoor space ready for spring with a thorough cleanup—it’s an investment in a beautiful, healthy yard!
