Celebrate being with each other. Use fallen leaves in gardens If you have to rake leaves from the yard, you might as well get some use out of them. Leaves make an excellent mulch and can also go into the compost pile. A two to three inch layer of leaves over the garden plant provides several benefits. It holds down weed growth, adds organic matter when it is plowed or rototilled under next spring and it prevents the ra in from compacting the soil. Thicker layers will add more organic m atter. However, whole leaves will decompose available at no charge. slowly and possibly prevent the Som e discard ed p la n t Soil from drying to permit materials shouldn’t be used as spring preparation.

It is Heritage Club participates at conference Store gardening equipm ent properly After the fall garden harvest is o v e r, o n e im p o r ta n t gardening chore remains, the cleaning and storing of garden equipment. Properly main tained equipment will give many years of service and eut down on costly repairs and replacement. Small hand tools sh o u ld be c le a n e d an d sharpened. Be sure to remove rust spots as well as dirt. When the tools are clean and dry, apply a light coat of oil to protect them against rust through the winter months. Make sure garden hoses are drained. Then coil them and hang them from a curved surface. Placing hoses on a nail or hook causes a sharp bend that can weaken the hose and create a leak next year. I t’s best to follow the manufacturer’s direction when cleaning power equipment. Generally, gasoline engines should be drained of gas. Also make sure all the fuel is removed from the gas tank, evaporation. If the engine oil is old and dirty, it should be changed. Also remove the spark plug and squirt a small amount of oil into the cylinder. With the spark plug still removed, turn the engine over by hand so the cylinder walls are lubricated. Put a light coating of oil on power equipment parts that contact the soil when in use. Other bare metal should be painted if the original paint has been damaged. A lockable cabinet or closet is ideal to keep tools safely out of the way. Hanging tools from the garage wall is another way to keep them from under foot. Store tools carefully, otherwise you may end up tipping them over, damaging the tools and possibly yourself.
