Spring

Spring is the perfect time to prepare your garden for the growing season. Here are some tips:

• Clean up your garden beds by removing any debris or weeds.
• Amend the soil with compost to provide essential nutrients for your plants.
• Start planting cool-season crops like lettuce, kale, and peas.

Summer

During the summer months, your garden is in full swing. Here's how to make the most of it:

• Water your plants deeply and less frequently to encourage deep root growth.
• Protect your plants from the intense summer heat by providing shade or using row covers.
• Harvest your summer crops regularly to encourage more production.

Fall

As the temperatures cool down, it's time to start preparing your garden for the winter. Follow these tips:

• Plant cover crops to protect and enrich the soil during the winter months.
• Clean and store your garden tools to keep them in good condition for the next season.
• Harvest any remaining vegetables before the first frost.

Winter

While your garden may be dormant in winter, there are still tasks you can do to prepare for spring:
