When it is winter, most probably, you don’t want to move as much as possible. But if you are a gardener, you should still need to get up and do some work in your garden. If you don’t, you won’t be able to maintain the beauty of your garden. In an article from jacksonprogress-argus.com which is written by Judith Wojcik Ashley, she pointed some chores which should be done in your garden even if it is winter season. First, you should make the leaves as compost or add it to your garden as mulch. As much as possible, you have to chop or shred the leaves so that they would break easily. In fact, after you have celebrated the holiday season, you can use the leftovers as compost. Second, you should also inspect the whole garden and repair some damaged tools. The gardening tools are important for your garden, aside from the fact that they are also expensive. You should check the handles of your tools, clean, sharpen, and remove the rust, and apply lubrication. Most especially, you should store them properly in your garden shed.
