Did you know that lawn care doesn’t stop when the snow starts to fall?
Are you worried your grass is taking a beating during winter?
Like many of us in the Midwest, you’ve switched out the lawn mower for a snow shovel.
While your lawn may not require as much care in the winter as it does during the other seasons of the year, did you know there are some steps you can take to make sure your lawn is in good shape come springtime?
1) Aerate & fertilize – In the fall, have your lawn aerated. Aerating your lawn will give it a chance to breathe before the grass goes dormant. After you’ve aerated, fertilize to give your lawn the nutrients it needs to prepare for winter.
2) Keep the lawn clean – If leaves have piled up during fall, there’s a chance the lawn could suffocate before winter. Leaves that are left behind could also invite disease if they’re too wet.
