Prepping Your Garden For Spring

I'm going to add that you should get your soil tested to determine what nutrients it may need. For example, in my yard, we've had an above-average amount of water this winter so I know I'll need to add some lime - no - probably a lot of lime. I don't know what else. So, before I start planting, I need to send off some soil samples.

If it's still cold where you live and your nut and fruit trees haven't yet started to sprout leaves, it's not too late to give them a good bath of volck oil to temper the bugs and diseases you may encounter later this year.
