Happy Holidays from Main Street!

It is hard to believe that the holiday season is already here. Main Street Lawn and Garden is ready to assist you with your decorating and gift needs. We have always provided our customers with the highest quality products. This year when looking to purchase real Christmas trees for our lot, we were disappointed with the quantity and quality available. Instead of compromising our standards we decided not to sell Christmas trees this year. We will however have fresh garlands and wreaths along with a large selection of bows.

We also have some great indoor Christmas decorations for the tree and home. Stop in and see the wide variety of gift idea items such as terrariums, gazing balls, wind chimes, and more. For the children we have sleds and coasters so that they will be ready to enjoy the first surprise snow storm.

Happy holidays from our family to yours.

Happy New Year

We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday! Now that the Christmas decorations are put away and the celebrations are over it’s time to concentrate on getting prepared for spring planting and yard work. In zones 7 and 8 January is a great time to put out an extra layer (at least 2 inches) of mulch or pine needles around shrubs like azaleas, hollies, camellias and boxwood especially with the extreme cold weather we have experienced lately. We recommend a finely shredded variety.

Before you put away your mower for the winter you might want to mow and mulch your lawn one last time to get up the last of the late fall leaves. Mulching enriches the soil and provides nutrients for the roots of your grass. Don’t forget to winterize your mower and power tools before you put them away for the winter. Make sure to use a fuel stabilizer and run it through the engine before you let your equipment sit in the shed or garage. This will help you to avoid costly repairs in the spring.

Of course we can not forget our feathered friends at this time of year when food and water are not readily available. Our backyard birds prefer Nyjer seed, sunflower seeds and white proso millet at this time of year. A small shallow container of fresh water placed close to the feeders will ensure that they water. Refresh the container with warm water if it freezes.

No need to worry, Main Street Lawn and Garden is prepared for the worst winter weather. We have sleds, shovels and ice melt. Grab your favorite warm beverage and sit down to make your list of plantings for the coming season. Spring will be here before you know it.
