Fall & Winter Lawn Care

Think about fertilising your lawn a final time before the ground freezes. This will be important to grow beautiful grass in the spring. You’ll want to time this just right. Get out your Farmer’s Almanac to get an idea of the best time to fertilise your lawn. Ask at your gardening center the best type of fertiliser to use on your lawn, as it can depend on your area.

Begin to cut your lawn shorter as you approach winter. It is best to go through winter with a very short lawn. Most often we are shoveling snow off of our lawns and you’ll find that a well-kept lawn is very important after the first snow fall. It can be very hard to shovel snow with longer grass mixed in.

This is also the ideal time to organize your children’s backyard equipment and get rid of what they are not using. Perhaps the children have out-grown their playground equipment. This is the ideal time to take it apart and put it out for pick up. You’ll want to enter fall with a tidy and organized lawn. Sometimes Santa has a way of bringing new background play equipment too, and getting rid of the old now can be very helpful.
