Aspire To Be…

If you haven’t ordered fruit trees, now is the time. Stark Bros is probably the most known mail-order catalog with an abundance of fruit trees to order. Check out the web to find your favorites. With your existing fruit trees you can go ahead and spray them with a dormant oil spray.

Break out those pruning shears! Prune blueberries, grapes, and deciduous trees and shrubs now.

If you have spring fever start some seeds indoors. It’s a good time to start cold season crops from seed indoors, so clean off those windowsills.  Head lettuce, celery, broccoli, cauliflower, peas and cabbage are all excellent choices.  Herbs can be grown anytime indoors, so if you don’t have plans for an outdoor garden , then start one indoors with herbs.

March is just around the corner and the early planting season will begin.
